Well, on the other end of the spectrum... Here are two of my toys - will take more pictures soon to add the rest. 2009 Honda Metropolitan. Don't let the camrea angle fool you, it has a 28" seat height. 2010 Roketa 50cc Moped. 4-spd transmission with auto-clutch.

Originally Posted By: JTK FWIW, this exact 150cc is used on lots of Chinese ATVs and the engines themselves are pretty much indestructible. Joel Yeah, there's a lot of them around here too - on scooters and atvs. Those engines actually are pretty good. The only problems i've commonly seen...

Yes, it will be fine. Either one will do - but both are very good oils. I guess if you ride in REALLY cold weather the 5-40 would be preferable. But until you get down to 30-deg. F or colder you won't have a problem with the 15w40 anyway. I've used them (HDEO's) as well as many others on here...

Yeah, but the SuperTech CI-4+ had a much stouter add-pack than the current version - that's the only reason I (and some others on here) prefer it to the new mix. On the other brands this probably wouldn't apply.

What I use in mine (Yamaha, Honda, Chinese, etc.) is Rotella T 15w40 - or maybe T6 (5w40) in cold weather. It's hard to beat the price/quality mark with HDEO's. Since most scooters have a CVT, they continuously run high rpm's and need all of the protection they can get - more so if yours is...

Yeah, I recently found some of the older SuperTech 15w40 (CI+) hidden behind the newer CJ-4 bottles. The older stuff being the 'good stuff', I scooped them up immediately. My wife knew then that I was nuts. Thanks BITOG....

or just plain ole Rotella T 15w40 - great oil and commonly available.

I've got an old Kirby G4 that i've had for years (10+) and it still works like new. Change bags and an occasional cleaning - that's all it ever needs.

Here we go again, all of the junkers will be out this weekend. Last year I paid my $5.00 and had a mounding pile by the curb over the weekend. By noon on Monday, when the city truck came by, I didn't have $1.00 worth of stuff left for the city to take. It's simply amazing what some people will...

I was able to find a pair at my local Wal-Mart. I couldn't believe it - 27x1.25 tires for $15 each! Both tires and tubes replaced for $40 - good for many more miles than i'll probably put on them. And they're solid black too, no gum walls. The bike that they went on is a mid 80's model...

Another vote for 'Alien' I first saw it at the late show when I was 8-years old. Talk about scaring the (you know what) out of me - especially at that age. My uncle, my cousin, and I went to see it. He knew it would be scary, but not that intense! Great movie - though I wouldn't recommend it for...

Yes, at that price I now have 10-gallons in my stash. Great oil and I can use it in anything I own (except for my cars this coming winter).

Helen, sorry for bypassing the censor - won't happen again.

I just got an email from him at 9:30pm, so sometime in the afternoon i'm guessing. His last post is shown as being 12:49pm so......... Helen gave him a temp. ban apparently (according to the other thread), he came back, behaved himself, and now this?

Alright, what the heck is going on? He was permanently banned - no reason given on e-mail or his login screen. He sent me screen pics of his login attempts and any/all emails from BITOG - this is the real thing! What is going on here? No reason? What the? Was this a mistake? Shouldn't there be...

Good to hear. If maintained regularly and treated right (no continuous WOT) it should be good for at least another 10000 - 15000 miles before you have to touch that engine - maybe longer. I've seen a few of those around with over 30,000 miles on them and still going strong - no reason to think...

Originally Posted By: greenaccord02 That's a really cool machine. Probably some of the best specs for a 486 machine that I've ever seen. Where did you get the parts from? I had an idea to do something similar not long ago, but I didn't do it because I couldn't find the parts. I have a couple...

Originally Posted By: OVERK1LL Makes me want to fire up my old 8088!!! Well, maybe not an 8088 - but a 486 is pretty flexible in the era of games you want to run (all 80's up to mid-90's) with relative ease. One thing about the old 8088's, they're built like tanks and will still run 50-years...
