After driving rigs with campers tied down with both styles, I have to say... I find the straddle/saddle bed mount style downright dangerous compared to frame tiedowns. With saddle style bed mounts, the camper and bed sways around a LOT. Frame tie-downs eliminate most if not ALL of the sway and...

Generally I would agree... but I couldn't beat free, and if I can get it running and I don't like it, I'll pass it on to someone else who will use it. It's gotta be better than the 1960's McCulloch 250 I've been using :redneck:

It has an idle screw and a Hi and Lo screw, I'm guessing you're speaking of the idle screw to start with? What to do with the Hi and Lo after that? It had a little bit of gas in there, I topped it off with fresh mix. Air cleaner is nice and clean, but the top is off the carb right now cause I...

So I got an older Homelite 330 for free from my dad. The story is the guy he got it for free from fiddled with the idle and high/low screws on the carb, then it wouldn't run after that. It's got good compression and spark, and I can get it to fire and run for a second or two with some starting...

I heard the EXACT same thing just the other day!

Wish I lived closer to ya'll... I want to take my stinky out on some sweet jumps, but I still have to wait for things to thaw out and warm up a little around here. :(

Cool. One of these days I'm going to bring my Husky over to Reiter and ride some of the single track I've seen out there, you up for it?

Well, I just have a single fixed cog on the front, so it's only the rear to deal with. When I got the bike, this problem wasn't so bad... I could deal with it by doing exactly like you said, just hitting the shifter again and dealing with it... but it's gotten steadily worse. The cassette on...

I ****ed around with it some more today... it's not any better after, and almost worse... I'm going to take it back to the shop (Das Rad Haus in Leavenworth) that I first took it to, and have Patrick (the mechanic) take it for a longer ride so he can really see what it's doing. It's a 9 speed...

Thanks guys for all the advice. I'm going to mess around with it after I get back from California next week.

Did that, they told me the chain was fine and that it would never shift like a competition road bike... I just want it to be rideable and not skip gears on me when shifting, or shift randomly while I'm riding, and it would be nice if the chain didn't fall off when I use it like it was mean to be...

So I have this great Kona Stinky Deluxe that I want to ride, but everytime I ride it, I have problems with the chain, shifter, derailure setup. It has a shimano XT derailer in the rear, single front sprocket with bash guard. When riding, it shifts very cantankerously... it seems to upshift a...

I used to live on Snoqualmie Pass @ Hyak and in Cle Elum when I was a wee little one, and met him a couple times. :awesomework:

Happy Jack! That guy is a character. :haha:

Turkey & Rice... meal of champions!

Just came back from a little ride around town. :masturbanana[1]:

Yep, wish there was a lockout on the rear shock, would make it lots easier to pedal uphill. Oh well.

I wanted to, but we just never got around to it. Too bad there's snow now. Is it closed seasonally?

Never know with you crazy "big bike" riders. :haha:
