Some fun stuff that I think is worth sharing with others. Most of it is random play things when we are living our normal life in Western PA. Some product reviews, plenty of life antics. I also have a tool addiction, so you will see various tool as well as equipment reviews and opinions. I'm not a master mechanic, I am not a physics major.... but I am pretty dangerous with a toolbox nearby and I'm not all that stupid. I float somewhere in the middle of the pack, but with OCD and ADHD tendencies I often over research, gather and database facts and information and eventually learn more than most about what interests me at this time. So I use these traits and skills to create content, not always often, but almost always relevant to to the types of subject matter that you see and would expect. I was born in 1971, I do have a degree, I work at a nuclear power plant as an non-destructive testing NDE Level III. Hopefully you enjoy my sort of raw content.

Motor oil and diesel fuel mixture for ultimate wood stain and protection.
zhlédnutí 251Před měsícem
We recently purchased an Amish rough cut shed and decided to stain and protect the wood with a mixture of 50/50 used motor oil and offroad diesel fuel. The results are amazing. Pro tip: Do not use diesel oil unless you want the black soot in the oil for a dark, near black wood finish. I use only gasoline engine used motor oil, and all of my equipment gets frequent oil changes, so my used oil is...

Thinking of doing this. How does the smell compare to the old school coal tar creasote that i usually use? This being half the price of that. Looks good.
Gotta use the handbrake
Thanks so much for this. New to a JK and wasn’t tucking the side in the correct way. Flapping on the highway! 🤦🏻♂️

Hello, Are you interested in testing our products? We would like to invite you to test the Phone Holder for your Yamaha Rhino 660
I have a 2019, dont need chains, 500 hours, works beautiful.
@paulleblanc4653 I use weights and chains because I live on a cliff. The weights and chains are a game changer, for sure. But if your property is mildly sloped, you can easily get by with the machine as is sold stock.
@@paulleblanc4653 I'll also add that I do not use the electric lock in the rear axle/differential. The weights and chains give it so much traction that it's not needed.
Boy what is with all the haters? Man just trying to share some knowledge and opinions
@owenriggs8518 Everybody has their opinions, so you can't expect mine to be agreeable to everyone. I should do an update on this now that the machine has 6 summers under its belt and my son is using it for his lawn business.
This is 5 weekends since my wife and I did the oil and diesel on the shed. At this point, there is zero odor left. At the 2 week point, I was nervous at the level of odor or smell left. But now, at 5 weeks, there is honestly nothing left.
I just bought the same one. I prefer the looks of this one then the factory one.
Nice video. Thanks for sharing
Glad I did my research. I joined up after my invite and grabbed some truck mats right away. After these, I will be keeping it under $600 and I'm doubting I'll be able to hit their 100 reviews required in the stated time line. That's a high bar to hit with over-inflated prices on cheap Chinese junk that I don't want or need. I'll have to see if I can find worth while $0 ETV's but unlikely.
@RKDriver There are a lot off supplements and health related items that are $0 ETV that you can use to keep your required numbers up.
Cub XT3, 2500, 3000, 2000 series, XT2 GX54D, Simplicity Conquest and Prestige, JD X500 and X700 series, and Case/Ingersoll GTs are taking this thing to the woodshed.
@JoshAllen17Goated You didn't watch the video, obviously. The point is that at the price point, new from a dealer, with the new warranty.... no one at all competes at the value that this does. Go find me a unit at $4600 that even matches the Kawasaki/K66/fabricated deck of the Husqvarna being talked about here. I'll wait. If you can beat its price and at least match its build, I go buy it.
@@LarryMusgrave XT2 GX54D, has a much stronger fully welded steel frame instead of the stamped steel frame on the Husqvarna. A K62 while not a K66, only about 50 or so footpounds weaker. Fabricated 10 gauge steel 54 inch deck, with a lifetime warranty, 3 year, unlimited hour warranty on the entire machine. Kohler and Kawasaki engines available. LED lights, and is able to handle a johnny bucket unlike the Husqvarna glorified push mower with a seat says the maker of johnny products. $4699, I look forward to seeing it on your channel.
@@LarryMusgrave Screw new machines, why not come to your senses and buy an old GT? Anything built 15-20+ years ago is vastly superior to anything built today. You wont need a warranty if you’re mechanically inclined which I’m sure you are! Nothing wrong with a little elbow grease here and there for a vastly superior machine.
The first thing I did when I bought the bike was a skid plate and hand guards. I don’t see that you have those, at least yet. Honda did a nice job of keeping this bike a bit utilitarian because the bike has a solid record without the gremlins that higher tech stuff cause. It also keeps the price low. I don’t intend to make any further mods to my bike, but what you have done certainly looks good.
I know a guy who has put almost 400,000 miles on his. The only thing that has gone bad on it was the TPMS sensor. I know another guy who has a Zx14r with 100,000 miles. They are incredibly reliable.
This is why I also bought an E locker Front diff for my 2014 F150 with a Trutrac rear. 4.56:1 works well.
Just picked up a YTH 22v46XLS with 425 hours for 50 dollars she purrs like a kitten 👍
How is the smell from the diesel.
@jeffquinn5653 I did it last weekend, I'll be heading up there this evening after work. But from what I've seen, the smell disapaites greatly in about a week, and by 3 weeks the odor is pretty much gone. I plan to wait around 6 to 8 weeks and soak it down again. Then I think I could go around 10 years before I need to bathe it in oil again. Being hemlock, insects pretty much can't eat it or bore into it once it dries and hardens. Likely, after this initial treatment, that hemlock will will outlive my kids. It gets that hard.
@jeffquinn5653 Week 2,14 days later. I just got here, sitting on the porch, I still do smell it. It's medium level strong, not troublesome. My wife just said that it's not annoying, not giving her a headache or anything, but she noticed it. I'm thinking that the 3 week thing may be a little.... bull-shit. Regardless, I do still plan to respray it at the mid to end of August. I just can't afford to spend $500+ on store bought sealer stain.
Absolutely can hear that dog! 😆
Should of made the video at a dog kennel 😂
I just got a 2009. Replacing rear brake pads and there’s a bit of oil but not a big leak. The shop wants to charge $1k for valve job, I know she’s a bear to take apart but is that steep? Biggest bike I’ve ever had….
$1000-$1200 for a valve job and new spark plugs is about typical. That's not a rip off. That said, if your a wrench, you can save around a Grand and cost yourself a weekend day to get to it and get measurements, order new shims and get them by next weekend, spend another full weekend day shimming and getting it back together, and do it yourself.
I got mine a year ago, it seems extremely loud is that normal for this machine?
The Kawasaki is fairly loud, but much more smooth running than a similar sized Kohler V twin.
@@LarryMusgrave the engine is not as bad as the blades,
@moshe2p That is the Husqvarna Clean Cut deck. It's actually an amazing deck with nearly unmatched airflow and suction. I also have a $14k Exmark Laser Z commercial zero turn, and I can say that the clear cut deck mows more smoothly, every time. It's that extreme commercial level airflow that your referring to. And that is a good thing. It's why, with maintained and sharp blades, you will have a perfectly smooth, golf course quality lawn.
I cut my hooks too
that a termi under the cover?
Good eye. 2003 SVT Terminator, 6 speed, silver, vert, caged, Live 8.8 with 4.56, ceramic dual disk puck clutch, ported and re-geared blower, Aerospace Components brake system and I'm sure lots more that I've forgotten over the years. It's a low 10 second car on slicks and good driver. It's a high 10 second car on DOT slicks and me driving 😂
@@LarryMusgrave very nice! I don't have many "dream cars" but that is definitely one of them. Hey question do you still have the Concours 14 and if so does it still work out well for road trips with a passenger? What about the lack of cruise control?
Yo i have my xr way more modified but its for perfomance too, thats a gorgeous bike too tho great job 👌 just commented about mine cause of the title of the video
Curious what you did for performance mods? And how long you been running things etc.
Larry for the love of god please fix this title description, it’s complete disinformation at this point. Especially after you realized and corrected the problem of having friction modifier in the gear oil. This will help a ton of people out !
What handle bar bend did you go with ? How does it compare to stock bend and do you like them? Thanks
How do you find out what your tax rate is?
If you're in the United States, just Google federal tax rates 2023 and look at how the rates align with your annual income. Let's say you file joint with a spouse, make $150k a year, and you take $10k from Vine. Your new adjusted gross income is $160k. You did not jump to a new tax rate, but that vine $10k should be taxed at 22%. Then, you'll have your state and local tax if applicable. So call it $2500 tax burden for that $10k in stuff that you requested.
@@LarryMusgrave I'm a single person and I always get a Federal refund each year. It sounds like what I need to do is try to figure out how much I can order on the program to stay within the limits of what I usually get back each year, and just call it an even trade since I most likely am going to spend the refund anyway… essentially letting my tax refund pay my taxes on the products I would get through Vine if I get in the program, and try not to go overboard with it.
Nasty bike!
I had my new top installed and it looked okay. I was leaving the country for 1.5 years, though, and didn't have a chance to drive it until I got back. After a few times on the interstate, I noticed that the windows were flapping and had never been able to figure out why. The installer wouldn't look at without pay because it had been so long. I can't believe how simple this is (and why the installer didn't know to do it). Thank you for being so detailed.
I am new to Vine and will be trying hard not get caught up in the euphoria and just stick to what I would normally purchase and use in my household. It's a double edged sword...but hoping to have wisdom and control. Thanks for your video.
Thank you. I didn't realize this was being counted as taxable income. I figured it was just the state sales tax rate for the item. Knowing what I now know it gives me pause. One could get thousands of dollars worth of junk they wouldn't have normally bought and get stuffed with a big bill come tax season when they realize they are charged their income tax rate and not the sales tax rate. Worse, this added 'income' through the vine products could bump you up to a higher tax bracket.
Thanks for the video. Could you tell me what wheel weights you have?
20k is to much money
I like the mule not sure about the pricing
When the price go over 12000 you may could get a used truck
Am I the only one who wonders why the hell they dont make a kit that includes sockets? I would love to see Harbor Freight do these with some Quinn or Icon sockets. like just a full blown set that has all the things ready to go.
Thank you for sharing excellent rebuild. Hope your son is doing fine now after the accident
He's doing well. The bike now has just over 3500 miles on it.
Well, I've had mine since 2019 and I like it lots. The only issue is with the headlights. Lately, I can't get the left side one to come on....when I first got it, the right side one wouldn't light up consistently. Most of the time, if I take off the connector, put it back on and move it around, it will come on. Anyone else have that issue? Mine still looks like new ....rust is not a factor.
That was not a Flare 😂
Does it work with a normal can of grease? Looks like a big tube
Yes, it takes standard grade tubes like you have always used. I'm using the black Kubota branded tubes and everything fits like it does in my manual grease guns.
@@LarryMusgrave thanks 👍
I have AM-15 new fully assembled from retail store got 1 month back and mine is stuck in the shortest position. How come this design is so stupid that we cannot get around it easily ? I am still stuck don't know how to unstuck it ? I didn't assemble it, so factory should have got it right i expect.
Those fricken dogs lol I did laugh at the end there lol😅
The young brownish red one, Red has stopped being quite so loud. But the old girl, Angel.... she's a dang barking machine to the end of her days.
Does your tractor ever feel like it's going to tip over mowing on that incline or is that why you added the wheel weights?
The weights help greatly with lifting the uphill tire. The weights and chains combined help greatly with traction, it will climb embankment that is steep enough that the front end lifts if your body isn't positioned as forward as possible. I recommend both the weights and the chains if your living on a hillside, like I do.
@@LarryMusgrave Thanks for the suggestion. I have the same tractor, a 2023 TS354XD, which is over kill for our property. We have a small yard that is sloped on one side and my tractor feels a bit light when I mow on it's incline. Sometimes I even mow up and down rather than horizontally in that area just to be safe. 🙂
How are the brakes? Trail braking? If you push it a bit?
I'm not a track guy, so I'm not into trail braking. The brakes are extremely strong and also able to be controlled easily. But if you need to get stopped in a big way with 400 lbs of humans on top, she will bite down and nearly toss you over the bars in my 2018. I've picked the rear tire up with front brakes before and the active breaking off.

How many miles for oil changed any idea
Being that the kids use is only occasionally, I did an oil change one time in the spring. I still have this machine, I think it was around a model year 2002 or so, I still start it up now and again. My grandchildren are 2 and 4 years old, so hopefully the next generation of kids can ride it soon.
