porch thieves should be given a bullet ant enema....twice

You need to find someone that works from home and have your parts shipped there so they wont get nicked while your away... Happened to me more than once so I never order unless I know I will be around the day they arrive. Too much of a PITA to get it taken care of after the fact Sorry you got set back like that.

Storage till you do 😄

I am looking to upgrade my lathe, and in doing so, I will also consider selling the one I currently have. If I sold it as is, without any tooling (which will come with a quick-change tool post), and I kept the phase converter for the new lathe, I would give it away if someone were to come and take it. It is under power and have .00025 runout on the headstock. The interested party can come over and try it. Comes with a 3-jaw chuck, a backing plate, and the stock accessories that came with it when I bought it Lantern-style tool holder and other assorted stuff. I am thinking like $750 asking price/make me an offer (let's talk) I just don't know where to price it. It is a 1936 Leblond 13" lathe, only 50" total length very short bed for it's size. New cross slide screw and nut were installed just a few years ago. I have the factory manual and original bill of sale if you can believe that. It does threading operations if you are into that kind of thing and has been a very good lathe but I need something more rigid for the kind of work I finding myself getting into these days and need the larger capacity. Buyer is responsible for moving it, but I did it with a drop deck trailer and black pipes. This is how it looked when it came home; it does not show the new drum switch for power in this picture.

Because you keep leaving it behind in other countries ….to soon?

On the calendar udo save 1 chocolate covered donut for me

If you go to Ramona, then you have to hit up @Mr.JAJA he lives right there and knows the area very well. he would be the best point of contact for places to check out in that neck of the woods. He is also one of our resident engineering experts on all things motorcycles.

You can have it as long as you need it to keep you riding

What time are you thinking to the meeting spot? I would be game for doing this Not particular on the day

He is riding my 525

Out of curiosity, does this even land on your radar? What you have is exactly what I am looking for (to make the wife happy)

I want to watch! Thought of this solution as well would be easy enough to make but I have the gland nut wrenches which are made for basically the same thing. Yours might be a better solution since mine uses a round peg in a square slot.

I have a version of those wrenches you use with a ratchet; they will be back at the house tomorrow. PM me for details.

To bad you were no able to arrange for your parts to get delivered up to this event so you could bring them home from MX since you were already down there, might of made sense to drive down and get them since you already were in country?

We just did a massive street ride through here last weekend, with so many people this time of year. A lot of the trails have been closed will be good to know what you end up finding open. If you are on ADV rider, check with the regional forum there, you might get better info on closures, etc. MAP BDF_2024_MVUM_NorthA_20240529.pdf

@Mr.JAJA You are just mean in your old age....... 🤣 Pictures or it did not happen, I am sure the owner would love to see evidence of you riding...where are the witnesses

I just did a trip with Kuge to WARPed, that thing kept up just fine on the freeway with luggage etc. Good bike for the price

Anyone??

I had a cush drive on my DRZ S model I do not know where the hub came from though

Found one to try something out on, thanks for the replies folks!

Is the rear a cush drive or direct

Can i arrange to try a wheel on it? Want to change a front tire on the 1290 and looking at some machines this is one on the list. Where are you in SD?

It is called a bicycle, you ride it like a motorcycle but without the noise and weight. Takes longer to get places too but easier to pick up when dropped......

Did i weld (Baja Tacs) the foot pegs on this bike? IF so to the buyer, they are heavy tac's not fully welded to you wont lose them but if you ever had to replace them a small cut off wheel is all it takes to remove them you can do it with a dremel or just bring it to my shop with your new stuff and it can get installed here. I stand behind my work, that way I get good footage when it fails epically. Too much risk getting hit if in front......

Asking 11.5K of course, feel free to make an offer, I just needed a starting point. Put this up for sale, linking the FB ad because there is a ton of information and pictures in it. Here is the description and link to video of specs from when it was new, being sold at some dealership. 2015 Jayco Baja off-road A-Frame camper. Everything works as designed. The camper has the following: Fresh water tank (15gal), Outdoor shower, 6 Gal hot water heater (propane), total of 21 gallons of water capacity, Refrigerator runs off 12v/110/Propane Microwave (110 only), AC/Heat Heat Pump in addition to a propane heater, which apparently was an option (not sure just know it works). Gas cooktop with 3 burners. All interior lights upgraded with new LED's. Skylights were replaced with Lexan on the front. Rear skylight removed and replaced with an insulated panel to allow for the mounting of a solar panel in the future if desired. I found that using it the skylight just let a lot of hot or cold through right over the bed, making it very uncomfortable to sleep. New tires less than 1500 miles, electric brakes were serviced (work great), and new bearings etc,. were installed. Suspension is built for off-road and works very well behind a ½ ton truck it tows like it is not there. It can carry 1500lbs of cargo. I have used it to transport an adventure bike, and it was hauled with no issues. Multiple tie-down points are on the deck because I installed e-track along both sides for convenience. The railings convert to ramps for loading and unloading. Selling because we have outgrown it, family size-wise, can easily sleep two adults with small children (or dogs). Dinet sets up and has a crazy amount of headroom. The trailer is currently set up so interested people can come see it and step inside etc.
