Update in the Honda, my buddy got it running and rode it down his driveway and back!  

Ok how about this ... Sylvia owes me for the plow how 'bout I transfer his debt to you for it Kev??  You might have a better chance of getting paid.

The Briggs is a 14FB (5.25 hp?) and ai also grabbed this cool index.  Unfortunately, no collets for it.

I started putting some of the pick items away this week.  Cleaning up the shop floor starts with declutterring.  But there’s room on the ceiling 

 

The Red Suzuki nearly fell onto the Triumph.  It was a bit daring of me to hold it with one hand to record with the other, but that’s my commitment to good entertainment

The hand grips have deteriorated to mushy rubber, and the air filter did as well.  Filter will arrive tomorrow, but it’s been so wet here I doubt any dust will affect the internals.  The front caliper is hanging up a bit, so my first corner turned into a slide, plow, dump today.  The tires are less than stellar, but I’ll find some decent ones somewhere.

 

My old neighbor put some sweat equity in getting this running, an oil change, rec fuel and and a brand new battery, so I paid the $200 for HP Tuners credits to put a little custom tune in his 2008 Toyota Tacoma to eliminate some automatic de tuning it was doing to him.

So, here’s my $212 ‘91 Honda XR250L putting along looking for sheds this morning.
