    Funny you are talking about garage space. Just 10 min ago I showed my wife a larger storage shed that I want to buy so I can get more room in my garage. It’s getting cramped and there are some things that don’t get used that often that can live in a shed.
    I will also look into pouring some concrete along side the house from the garage to the shed so it will be easier to roll things from the shed to garage and back. . I could store the powder oven, sand blast cabinet, welder ect. That would leave room to keep all the bikes in the garage and easy to move in and out.

    just a couple of things tbh
    Went out to perry lake off-road park with the gf. I have a couple other pics not many. But the gf got this after I was told not to do a thing and I did it anyways and I ran out of skill (I don't got much lol) at the very end and couldn't get further then the front tire up lol. Btw I'm standing on the flat ground it was a pain to pull the bike up that....

    It's crazy. I don't think we have to plate the 50cc scooters, but no way can you put a dirt bike on the road.

    Huh odd I know a lot of states are changing that rule if they have it where you can. I need to do mine before my state decides to suck...

    I don't see the problem. There's no difference b/t a CRF300L and a CRF250F.....with the exception of a rad(and of course lights/blinkers/horn)....so less toxins to leak in a wreck :rofl: If you add the stuff, you should be able to plate it....just my .02 :D Hell, the little YSR 50's can be plated :rofl:

    Back on the oven today. Insulated and skinned the sides. Then I built the door, got it skinned inside and out with a cut out for the window/door. Used 1/2 “ silicon tubing for the door seal. Got the hinge and door latches installed. That was a ton of work. Way more than I was thinking when I was planning it out. Anyway getting close. Need to get electrical connectors so then I can wire up the elements and get the back insulated and skinned. Holy shit I had the oven on its back when I made the door to keep everything lined up. When it was time to lift it back on its wheels I was like shit this thing is freaking heavy. It was hard for me to lift but I got it. Won’t have to do that again.

    I really dont get the big wheel kits... its like "how to ruin a dirtbike 101".... its going to suck in everything other than sand and tbh if you need wheels that big for flotation you dont have enough power to push a paddle in the sand in the first place.

    Back to back thoughts. After yesterdays need for a jumper pack on a moto was wondering what small jump pack you guys carry? The Noco Gb40 I have in the truck is too big IMO for moto use.... not when I typically bring a 5000mah 3s RC lipo battery and battery clamp lead on the moto (this is about half the size of the GB40/GB20) on the longer trips out in the middle of no where. This setup works and can start the 4.0L on its own in my tacoma but offers zero protections for short / heat etc and no options for charging without something external as its just an RC car battery.
