I love my L&R Wave ultrasonic cleaner, different solution for different items sometimes just hot water will clean very well the mechanical action is the main thing.  Sidebar note: At U of M (Michigan) they are pioneering super high freq.(120hz) ultrasonic action to disintegrate cancer tumors, liver cancer is the first cancer to be approved by the FDA for ultrasonic treatment.  Zero side effects, typical treatment time is just one to eight minutes with zero pain.  I have rectal cancer so this is important to me.  I hope and prey that is came become the future of many cancers treatment, radiatio, chemical surgery are brutal and I can speak for recent experience.  Sorry to hijack but this is why I've been absent from 2T World.

Plus, a strong running stock looking 350 is a sleeper.  Nice bike and how you got a good buy?

It doesn't appear they are, I can read the "Hagon" logo on the upper end of the left shock. Super nice 400.

DT250 conversion I built for my Brother.  They make great street bikes.

Help!  I built a DT250 single cylinder converting it to a nifty little street bike.  Now I need a nifty digital gauge that's compatible with a 2 stroke, single cylinder.  I bought and installed a KOSO knock off and the tach is not working accurately.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

Your G3 swap was my inspiration to buy a lonely looking Yamaha MX100 from FB marketplace.  I meet the guy, look at the thing the motor looked a bit odd to me, ah well what do I know.  Take it home start looking closer and find it's a MX100 chassis with a DT175 motor.  That'll work too.  It's so cute tiny bike.

I'm always amazed the amount of brackets and tabs on a frame.  Looks like a good start,
I like cross-pollinating.  Basic hot rodding at it's best.

There are way too many white tail in Michigan. Driving at night at this time of year (rural) is considered deer hunting.  The problem is they find you!   My friends and I are cyclists and one of the regulars in our group was hit by a deer, nearly killed him, bolted from the brush and hit him, landed on top of him and broke his hips in several places, hospital time and wheelchair for two months, not fun.

"If I lived in "Shitterton" I would definitely move!"   Would that be a bowel movement?    and if you shit-a-ton nah, I don't even wanna go there.

Does Tim Potts still work there?  He worked in Oscoda Mi. doing the conversions from Passenger to freight.
   Nice guy and smart.   We used to race karts and he did likewise.
