    Oil change done! So complicated vs the taco, and even more expensive somehow.

    Also, forgot motorex oil is green and thought the head gasket was kaput for a min, draining coolant. Big relief.

    I can’t imagine the dog is overly excited about the bike, or at least I assume he’s not riding?

    Nope, no room for pupper.

    But he's always excited when I get home and give him all the "hello pets" he deserves :)

    A bit disingenuous since that is a "customer review" and yet I havent bought anything of theirs.

    Don't get me wrong, I like their kit a lot, just didnt fit my needs at the time, so I got the Taco Tabs kit instead. I stand by that statement in my "review" though.

    Edit: Took some emotion off. I forget what I was planning at the time that would have precluded this kit, but I still like it and may buy it in the future since I'm still stock in that dept.

    Edit 2: It was because the kit is based around the eccentric alignment tabs I no longer have.

    Yeah that comes across very sketchy ... "what customers are saying" and he's just cherry picked comments out of a TW thread??

    Got a garage project done before it got too hot in the garage attic. Only almost fell through the ceiling once!

    New outlet spliced in for a trickle charger on the bike!

    On a little reflection time, I'll give @Marlin Crawler the benefit of the doubt since TW screen names vs real customer names are basically impossible to keep track of. That said, I did make that comment in a "coming product announcement" thread so the product wasn't even a thing when I said that. I didn't go with the Marlin kit because I wanted the Toyota alignment hardware gone entirely or I prob would have.

    Im on a DIY binge right now, so I cobbled together a ski rack that fits around my bike rack so I don't have stuff just piled in the corner

    Then used the scrap to make a dog platform so Draco has a better footing riding in the back.

    Then managed to lift up my tent and change the bolts out for a shorter set by myself. Trying to do it with a healing sprained wrist wasnt my smartest idea, but I got it done! Gained about an inch and a half of vertical clearance.

    Left over plywood sheet from home repair. Then 2x 2x4s made up the whole thing.

    Cost of lumber has really dropped too.

    Yeah, its been a productive weekend.

    Got tired of looking at all these projects and just decided to be about it instead of thinking about it.
