    Cutting storm damage today IMG_20220702_094422454_HDR.jpg IMG_20220702_090802083_HDR.jpg
    That building is made of insulated door panels
    A company called lifetite makes them here
    Held up very well for the weight it took
    He could actually just replace the damaged panels if he wanted to.

    The only downside in running my very high compression ported 266s and 268s
    Is I've broken several recoil spools
    They had several variations and are getting hard to find
    The 272 of course had decomps
    I've never broken true blue brand rope.

    About 4 years ago I went to my stihl dealer
    I've run mostly stihl chain my husqvarnas and jonsereds since the 80s
    I needed a loop of 84dl .50 rs
    It was 43.10 plus tax
    no way that's when I
    Quit buying it.
    I also used Carlton,Windsor,total and Oregon
    But even they went to 20.00+ local
    So I've been running 10.00 a loop china chain in 3/8 3/8lp and .325
    In the 84dl loops I have 8ten,longer,archer full chisel chain
    I have about 30 loops of those.
    In 72dl full chisel I've been running upstart.
    I still consider stihl the longest lasting
    But the china stuff has lasted me every bit as good as Oregon
    To each his own.

    Yes yz490 frame with a 110hp+ kz1000 engine
    My nieces husband owns it
    He broke his back and a leg riding it
    My great nephew broke his leg on it
    And another rider broke his leg on it
    There's been more injuries but I can't remember them
    I'd burn the damm thing if it was mine.

    They dyno'd it with the built motor it was 240hp
    110hp was before 13/1 pistons and port work.

    That would be fun to rip down a dirt road on but hill climbs......nope. Those dudes are crazy. We have two big hill climb locations within 20 miles of us.
