here is the strangely tipped boat i like to fish out of... how did she get tipped??

apparently, however she tipped... she musta been in a big storm as someone had the forethought to try to drop anchor!!

and lastly, is anyone in need of an MF 16 frame? I got her for her motor... and then thought to try to restore her but I havent been able to find another MF16 since.. so sad...

ya know... after all, Japanese is a US product if you really think about it....

your 84 looks pretty clean!! nice to have the reverse with a hard tail (I think!!!) but when it comes to bikes im a honda guy... (could never find an indian or harley for the trails back in the day)

i started on a honda 50 ('73) then had a '76 CR 125M ... HOLD ON TO YOUR SOCKS!!!!

It is nice. Suspension would be nice but I like the size of the 84. If I feel the need for suspension and speed I use the 86 250r. It is a beast

Yep, stock I think it was around 38 hp. This one is closer to 50. On a couple hundred pound trike it is plain crazy

Hey Chris, what are you using for a seat cushion on the 300 series tractor with the tiller mounted to it? Do you have a source for the (non-deluxe) cushions? The local upholstry shop wants way too much to make one....

funny story there... I got a NOS one locally... correct part # and everything... but it does not have the cut away on the back to see the AC logo.... I never put it on because it was too nice... (pretty silly)then I bought a cover that is an OK match from an A&I dealer... just havent got around to putting it on either...the link below is the 20" seat... but Im not sure if I bought that one or the 19"..... either way... the price seems to have gone way upin the last year... as I recall it wasnt $30 but now up to $52https://www.allpartsstore.com/ItemDetl.htm?B2BSessionID=130311065603356&CategorySeq=&SelcBrand=&SelcMachn=&SelcModel=&SelcSectn=&SelcSubsc=&SearchDesc=1&TextSearch=TRACTOR%20SEAT%20COVER&ItemNumber=CK2000-1
