Amongst other bikes I have fond memories of owning a YZ125. It was a water cooled bike back in the late 80's.It did get me into a bit of trouble though! I looked to buy one a few years ago and there where a few about but at some ridiculous prices! Aye one still own a motocrosser? Or should I say a scrambler.

No you edited. You need to ask nicely then... ... like I said... ...relevant one has been, what's the point? D88, F89, F173, F174, do you need dates i joined and left? MEO's names, Chief stoker's sea daddies names, killick of the mess/Jimmy the ones names on each one, which mess, official number? How about run ashores? Columbo, Karachi, Manama, somewhere in the UAE, Djibouti, Athens, Charlie's hole in the wall bar Gib, Lisbon and Estoril, Brest, Antwerp, Amsterdam, Den Helder, Hamburg, Bremen, Copenhagen, Oslo, Tromso, somewhere in the Kola inlet/Barents sea (no run ashore but a visit to the Arctic ice sheet an incident with the Admiral Isakov), Halifax NS, St John NB, Noo Yoyk, Charleston, W Palm Beach, Ft Lauderdale, Bermuda, Funchal, Freeport, Nassau, Andros, Road town BVI, I didn't get off at Ascension but we was there, Port Stanley (the Globe) and West Falkland. Might have missed a few but hey,it's been a while.

Spent a couple of days this week working with a mate over in Cognac. Four conifers to remove, two Atlas cedar and two Spanish fir. They had been topped out in the past due to the risk of lightning strike, the region is flat and these trees are the highest thing on the horizon. Two had serious damage/delamination from recent strikes, a bit iffy on the climb as the crown on the largest Cedar would twist left and right as each limb was removed. All brash chipped, saw log cut to 3.4m for the mill to uplift next week and see what is salvageable. The gardener sent some drone footage of Nico up the tree.

Thank you. Appreciate what you say about touching, these are obviously suboptimal. Not planning on storing that long though so not expecting it to be too much of an issue, we'll eat them pretty quickly. Plus they'll be in a shed that I go in most days so will be checked frequently. The windfalls and heavily blemished ones I brought inside to be consumed straight away. If I can be bothered I might try a little experiment - rearrange them to have one crate stalk up and one crate stalk down.

Not sure what you are talking about there Joe.. this is an arb forum..

That does look fairly short. Here’s mine for comparison. Foot pedals for grab and rotate would put me off.

It is all OEM. You can get a decent bit out of these 350 saws, they are light, have decent AV and can come alive with a bit of work. The comment about 346s screaming but no grunt...been out with mine today and it goes like a train on N20. I don't agree on the 357...OK, mine isn't very standard, is almost impossible to pull over with the decomp being used and it flies but each to his own, personally, most 3 series Husqvarnas are pretty special.

I recommend getting an Imax B8, B6 or the various off brand clones (of a chinese item). This is intended for RC lithium charging but it will also do a very good job of lead acid, telling you exactly how much charge has done in, how much was in it with a discharge test. Generally Pb batteries are over rated abot 4x becuase of the way they degrade, this makes them last about 10x longer than if a smaller battery was specified. I generally say if measures at 50% capacity its time to be aware of future problems. At 25-40% you can expect problems if you leave lights on or dont give it ample chance to recharge. Below 20% you should expect problems, keep a jump starter with you and consider replacing. However theres little point replacing one if it will be used once, left to discharge for three years and then need replacing again.

I think that would be fair, although you'd probably want the timber too to make it pay for you.

That means a lot of people need to be paid off as threats against lots of people wouldn't work and even then its a lot of people and money and not everyone will comply, and they could leave testimonials that would be released after their death implicating those above and below them.

Morning all, Changing main drive belt on Jensen chipper. One of those with 4 belts bonded together. Was a pig to remove yesterday. I’m fitting 4 singles hoping that will be easier. Then got to drill out the seized bolts I had to chisel off to get lower cover off to get proper access. Still, rather do this under cover than have the old belt fail on site!

The machining marks which go around the piston are completely worn away, so yes I'd say that is pretty worn and new piston needed. You can probably clean up and reuse the cylinder, definitely worth a go. Possibly also look for a Meteor piston , makes the experiment cheaper and they work pretty well.
