    I believe the correct word is "Fartled". https://youtu.be/axSvw_bPCmM

    Video of the Day

    Probably the best "save" in motorcycling history. Just out of the view of the camera, he throws his leg back on and back out on the pavement. https://youtu.be/IAil9VHOTJc

    Photobucket fix!!!

    This fix is more for people who want to see pics in posts that owners haven't taken the time to dump PB. I belong to forums that depend on pics, and many forumites have been using PB for years and don't have the time or energy to switch over. Personally, I hate "the cloud", and don't store...

    Photobucket fix!!!

    At least for Firefox and Chrome. I use Firefox, so I don't know if the Chrome one works. Firefox; https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/photobucket-embedded-fix/?src=search Chrome...

    Restoring and repainting fairings on motorcycle

    Raskin's advice reminded me about something. The natural oils on your hands will make it hard to get paint to stick, so get some latex gloves.

    The WTF picture thread

    Back in the early 90s, I worked at a motorcycle dealer, and got to go to the national dealers show. Sadly, I don't have a picture, but a vendor had something just like this, but Briggs powered, and chromed out big time. They called it "Milwaukee's other Legend".

    Small Engine Interest

    Snow Removal... (for us lucky ones that get it) What Do You Use? Show n' Tell

    I don't have pics, but this past summer I picked up most of a Craftsman single stage push blower. It was missing the chute. It had been sitting a while, but I got it running. It blew blue for a while, but now runs clean. I looked at Sears.com for the parts, but they don't sell the chute...

    Small Engine Interest

    I think you may have your terminology reversed. Every lawn edger I've ever seen has a horizontal (shaft) motor. But welcome, none the less. I'm sure many here would love to see pics of the ATV.
