Glad it started for ya Chris, thats half the battle won.
 
That would be a kick to run around in at Lake Havasu so I hope it gets done soon.
 
Little by little, I go in for eye surgery today so I will likely miss a few days of working on it.
 
Lasik. Tired of glasses, they get in the way when I hunt, work and do anything I do.
 
the thought of someone sticking things in my eyes scares the hell out of me.

Me too! I have been trying not to think about it, I even had the other half fill out my paperwork so I would have to read about much.
 
I got metal shavings in my eye once and the eye doc said "Ok i'm gonna drill the pieces out of your eye now, so keep your lid open don't let it close." Do you know how hard it is to keep your eye open when someone says that to you. :p
 
I know you're blind and all now, but you get it driving yet? Took mine out for a little spin today. They are fun

We have a 2009 Ranger 750 we use for farm duty. Already ate one set of tires off of it and the IVT belt.
 
Haven't touched it since the day before my eye surgery. Just been busy with work, once I start working back in town I will get back on my hobbies.

Seems pretty quick to have eaten a belt. Driving around in hi too often when it should be in low?
 
Probably.... There were huge sections missing. It gets worked pretty hard.
 
I looked at mine in the garage today.

Any of you guys know what oil I should run in this thing? Hoping I don't have to go to the bike shop and spend 10 a quart.
 
The guys over at the local motor shop who build hot rod versions of these things near us told me to use any 10W-30 and I just run a WIX filter available at the local auto parts store. They recommend changing the oil every 25 hours of run time. I can't imagine yours would be much different.
 
I figured regular oil would be fine, heck it has been used in motors for years, why something special now.
 
I run synthetic in ours.

The trans and axles take 3 different kinds of oil though.... it's a head-scratcher.....
 
any progress? Got one of my harnesses installed tonight

Much better than the factory seat belts.
 
Looking real good!
