Thanks for the ride. It made doing the dishes much more enjoyable.  |

Thanks that was nice. The best I have seen are put on by Bartlet Shows out of Milwaukee. The one put on for the 4th in Milwaukee Harbor is awesome.

You haven't been gone all that long, I still remember you.  Sorry to read about your mishap. Did the cop do a good thing for you? |

That's what the state told me this morning while doing the food deliveries.

That brings back some memories of my youth in northern Wisconsin. We used to take old cars, take off the body and shorten the frame. Our own version of the ATVs.

This one is very easy. The receiver attaches to the axle. So it would be very easy to connect to the ball hitch. It's from GIANT. I took of the frame work and canvas and built the box. The Trek children's carrier clamps to the frame of the bike at the axle and would have to be modified.
They don't have a suspension so you can't go fast and the road has to be flat. They will flip over is you hit a bump and they aren't weighted down. Just have to be couscous.

I have ridden them in the summer. But truthfully I would rather winter in the southern states. Now back to scooters.  |

I can't comment on yours but I have a modified bicycle trailer that probably wheighs about 60lbs. A neighbor borrowed it and pulled it with his 125cc scooter with no issues. But, the electric motor on my bike burned out.  I could haul two baskets of laundry to the Laundromat or groceries and I had to go over an big overpass over the railroad tracks. Of course we have bicycle paths on most streets. |

Ever been snowmobiling? Friday fish fry? Polish Fest? Summer Fest? EAA fly in? Harely Fest? Wisconsin Dells? There's a lot of fun stuff. I just don't want to live here anymore.  |

They may be making fun of our skills but they sure do move up here for fun from the south. |

They may have it in there catalog but they didn't have any, or flux, in the store I went to a week ago. And only the cheapest of irons. There stores near you must be much larger. Besides the Blain's Fleet Farm is much better for the same price and less than a 1/4 mile away. Along with Home Depot, Menard's, Sears, Farmers Supply, Northern Tool and two major chain hardware stores. We used to have many Radio Shacks as well.  Maybe it's because I lived on the outskirts of Milwaukee/Waukesha and now Appleton/Oshkosh, Wisconsin but, I have never understood the interest in HF shown on this and many other boards. But I still check them out occasionally and get there e-mail flier. Oh well. |

It's best to remove the banjo fitting before removing the master cylinder from the handle bars. If you can open the cylinder to let in air you can let the hose drain itself as you mentioned.
