Seems to be perfect photoshoot ;) lovely conditions there aswell... Ahaha but yes anyway that does seem to be rather dark.. Do you know is that raider a Belgium import? Or Indiana?

Also.. In that first picture i spot a good old trusty cable tie.. Oh how they have helped me many times before... :P

It's a Belgium import..

Yep, cable tie's are very handy things  :D

 

So are we coming to conclusion yet chaps?    Do we have a darker red in the UK? Is it just on Belgium imports?

 

 

:dunno: Answers on a postcard please  :laughing-rofl:

I'm not sure i mean you have your raider from Belgium showing the colour down below. And mine from Indiana. Doesn't look much different. But.. Back to blaming tools again. Wasn't very good light or set up for pics.

Look down on the gear box and axel on mine there like pretty much the same colour?

Hmmmm..

      Paint Toro 520xi
      By ToroMan
      Evening,
       
      Looking for a known aftermarket paint brand and color number match for my Toro 520xi model #73542. Normally I would have the local auto paint store match a tractor part, but due to Covid, that's not an option right now. Was hoping someone can recommend a color they have used for the same tractor, as I've heard paint with the Toro label is a bad match.
       
      Thanks!

      Raider 12 replacement battery winter
      By mmmmmdonuts
      My cheap-o walmart U1 battery is starting to bite the dust again (barely able to crank it over fully charged, and ozzing everywhere) after 3 years on my 68' Raider and I am looking into a new battery for winter as I now have a plow setup. I was thinking of either getting the original 22NF battery that came with it or running a mazda mita battery which is a U1 size. Is the AGM worth the extra money over the 22nF even in the smaller size? I think the vibrations keep killing the cheapo batteries and I am trying to make sure I can leave it out in the cold and not have a problem starting in the winter. It does get down to 0F or below zero every once in a while. I don't think I want to go all the way to a 22nF AGM as it is $200. 
       
      Thoughts?

      when are new piston rings enough?
      By ohiofarmer
      I am picking away at the k series on the raider10. Basically the Piston blew through at the ring grooves as it appears the rings may have had too large a gap. I can feel a slight erosion of the bore where the ring gaps All lined up, but not even close to catching a finger nail.
      I am hoping just hoping out the bore will get it back to round close enough that a ring job will do .
      In any case I can measure the bore and report back. Discipline demands that I do not tear this engine down right now as too many things are taking up my time.
      Just hoping the gurus can offer a bit of guidance
