    This is the first time that I can remember not seeing any wildlife while camping or driving around.
    Not having a tag this year, I should have been pushing them out of the way to take a piss on a tree.

    I bought a cheap Bosch set with multiple fittings/hoses etc. Serves its purpose well

    When it comes to inspecting your front pumpkin. What exactly do yall look for? I had to drop the front axle again for turbo things so I drained it and the shit is shiny a f. (This was my third fluid fill from the regear)

    I've got the pumpkin stood up so I can spin and look at the gear and I don't see anything that looks concerning? But I also don't know what I'm looking for. Lol.
    As far as my smooth brain knows it looks like when I bought it and I've spun it multiple times and have found no indication of chipping in the teeth.

    you go on Amazon and there’s 30 of the same cheap kits under different Chinese brands.

    then you read about how cheaper kits/gauges caused issues.

    I hate the research rabbit hole.

    I’ll check out the Bosch. Also looking at MityVac and CTA.

    Electrocuting mice. lol. The relentless pursuit for a better mousetrap is real. :rofl:
    I still prefer the old snap traps. You always know when you get a fresh kill.

    Got rid of the decorative wind guards...

    and installed legit hand and lever guards.





    and some cheap ass footpegs because the $22.00 ones work the same as the $150.00 pegs.
    The stock rubber ones were comfy sitting but way too squishy and squirrely to stand on.


    Mirrors are next to be changed.

    It's what I use. Won't poison the dog if they happen to stick a nose in it. They usually only do that the one time anyway.

    Edit, I also use the green poison when I feel like there might be a nest because mama will bring it back to feed the youngins, but that gets placed where there is no chance of the dog getting at it.

    Thanks I wont use the green shit we have too many feral cats, i dont really like the cats, but dont want to poison them, and they do keep the mouse population down.

    on another note Oregon is kicking the shit out of CU
