A kid and his Honda.
« on: December 03, 2024, 01:46:00 PM »
 My son in law's nephew bought an old Honda trail 70. I figured it was headed for a rough end to its life. He said it was too slow, so he bought a clone engine. He looked at it, drew a wiring diagram and put it in, hooked it up and wired it himself. Now it goes 65, wheelies in second gear and he's 13 years old.
 I guess restoration is out of the question. L0L.

Don… My daughter in law blames me for everything.
Sounds like you’re joining that club!

 It snowed, he came home with a snowmobile. Yup, he's hooked.
