Arlin took me for a ride today and my back is still a little tender. When he punches the throttle, it pushes you so hard in the seat if feels like someone just rear-ended you and you can feel every bone in your spine. :shock: :shock:

This is a little better than "binder twine" http://www.harborfreight.com/professional-windshield-removal-kit-96339.html

I was trying to find a windshield for a Subaru Forester I scooped out from under Clint and found one in the "Pick-n-Pull" in WA for $40. Something to keep in mind vs our crazy prices. Shoot me an email or pm with your current schedule and I will make a visit to you?

Clint at Roadrunner Glass has been changing my windshields for years in the driveway. $230-$250. Vans, Buicks, Miata, etc.

I put a 4S 100A LiFePO4 on a 12V Hooka dive system 3 years ago. 8D LEAD lasted 25-30 minutes. LiFe.PO4 is still going strong at 90 minutes. No problem with heat. :D

You may find a $5 thumb throttle works better for you? They work better on a snow machine and ATV and I prefer the thumb throttle on my e-bike.

We may need to go back to basic bicycle understanding. Little wheels, mean less stability than large wheels. Rear Hub motor with heavy battery on rear rack means unstable bike. I have two 48V 12Ah conversions. Both NOW with the battery where it belongs, in the "V" which you don't have with...

This is a coincidence. Last Friday I sat with a fellow who had been on total life support unable to open and eye or move a finger for 5 weeks and is now moving a bit and talking. Many doctors in 3 hospitals had written him off. I told him a very short story of doctors writing me off 5 times...

Good stuff Methods. Thanks

Arlo; Pay attention. Take any battery pack you are considering using and connect one end of it to your metal box. To duplicate the worst case scenario, use an 00 cable with a piece of coat hanger connected the other end of the battery. Drag the coat hanger along the side of your box and let...

Nep, You seem to be on a suicide mission. Please read a little and watch the video. There is a tiny bit of truth in the previous rant on Mcafee. http://www.whoismcafee.com/ I first visited Belize in 1963. It was totally corrupt even then. We had to pay a bribe because the taillights on our...

John, I must admit that when I build commercial gear, most of my customers think I am insane, because I make stuff so strong. The fact that they bring their broken crap to me never seems to sink in. I don't want stuff to break 100 miles offshore, where they can loose a large part of their...

I put Michelins on my Honda Goldwing. They had 1/2 as many groves as those and the grove ended where yours turns and follows the circumference of the tire. Several of us had them and were all scared to death of what was going to happen when we hit heavy rain. NOTHING, to our surprise they...

Read what is written; "John will go ahead with the springs no matter what, so hopefully he will make a little oven out of bricks or just rocks, heat the welded area to dull red and let it slowly cool. The result wont be as strong as the rest of the spring, but it wont crack on you either. Just...

Strange; 21-6-9 is similar to 316 and can be welded or machined using identical techniques. A buddy of mine often TIG welds 2" SS pressure vessels, use in paper mills. How big was this lid and how thick?
