  • Scooter Starting Problem?

    I have a 1980 yamaha chappy, that doesn't want to start, I replaced the plugs, and threw some dry gas in it, and neither of those did the trick. I'm going to clean the carb today, but is there anything else it could be? What are some good ideas of things to check, I've heard that I should run it with starting fluid for a few seconds to test compression, but I'm not sure if that's a good idea on a 2 stroke. Thanks For Any Input

  • Good beginning bike for a 6' 2" 240 pound Guy?

    I am a fairly big guy and I'm looking for a decent used motorcycle. I'd like to do something small like a 250, since it's my first bike, but I'm concerned that I'm too heavy, and it won't take me up the long steep hill I have to go up to get to work. Does any big guy have experience with 250's and being big?

  • grandfather just died and I'm feeling a little funny.?

    My grandfather just died and it was not at all sudden, because of this I just didn't feel very sad, human emotion is natural but it doesn't seem to me like I ever had any hope for him living, could this be a bad thing if I were ever sick, would I not be able to fight, I hate to sound this selfish but It's sort of a hard question for me to answer. Normaly I wouldn't trust a forum with this type thing but I figured why not give it a shot, thanks a lot

  • How to make something similar to greek fire?

    So anyway, my social studies teacher and I had a debate outside of class. He thinks It's not known how to make anything like greek fire with even modern day supplies. I pointed out that the alchohol gel type substance is similar but he says that it isn't produced anywhere near as easily. basically i want to produce something "my own personal risk" similar to greek fire. right now I'm thinking some type of resin mixed with petroleum. I work at a hardware store so supplies that can be found there would be prefered. Any ideas?

    I've had a long debate on this,I say that gravitation has no effect on human behavior, there is no consistency of studies as to whether the moon affects behavior. I believe it's just ancient folklore.

  • How do I create privacy in an open loft while keeping a rustic feel.?

    I'm 15 living in a house in the Back woods of Vermont. i'd like to know how to get some privacy in an open loft, of course all teenagers want privacy in there room but my mom who commutes to work is up and having breakfast with all the lights on at 4 am. i'd like to be able to sleep during the summer. but my parents insist that i must keep the rustic feel of the house. Is there some kind of retractable curtain I could use that would do this. or anything really that wouldn't be very diffictult to install or be impossible with a loft ceiling that slopes like most lofts do being at the top of the house

  • Need some help finding an electronic frame for Odyssey 03 mechanical Marker?

    Ok well i've recently purchased an Odyssey 03 Mechanical marker and wish to mount an electronic from to it

    The only one I found to be compatable is an e-blade or e2

    Is there any other option to upgrade the frame as an eblade grip is more costly then the gun Itself I was thinking I could strip it off another gun like a spyder e-marker that's compatable with it. Any options
