    The 750 Kawasaki needs a hole cut where I laid a loop of fuel line in Pic. Sent to owner to see if I get the go ahead. Totally stupid that it has zero access to radiator cap! Even after removing rack and fenders, the radiator cap still can't be accessed until you remove yet another plastic...

    I did make room in my new shop to do my brake repair, but not naming names, someone ordered wrong hoses. What a dumb A he is! Lol. Correct ones are coming today! A friend/customer was here yesterday and he has a truck the wrong hoses will fit, so he got an early Christmas gift!

    Welding supply rant

    My bottle of welding gas is TSC, but acetelene torch and Argon are from a company formerly called Scott Gross. Can't remember new name. Been at least 2 years since any refill, so hoping I'm not wallet raped.

    I just looked up that listing and it's definitely home built. But done nicely!

    I have no idea what it came off. Possibly home built. I know there are plans you can buy to make your own.

    At the very least!

    That $5300 price is very reasonable if engine, hydrostatic, and hydraulics all work good.
