With the help of my son I got some stuff done today!
Got the cover off, and disasambled the frame work. *I made it all from 1 1/2 PVC. *Some parts are glued, and most screwed so that it comes apart for storage.

Then went to work replacing the old tank vents, they had plastic covers, one was lost and one was good, replaced with new Stainless ones.
Note that I have moved the vents up on the step down from the windshield, the old vents were under the rub rail, and when you trailer they leak gas out of them all the time!!
Did this years ago and have never leaked a drop again!!

Good job MJ.
I learned this winter that I have to work on my PVC winter cover supports.
I thought wire ties would be enough, but whne the cover rips and flops in the wind,
all bets are off.

Thanks guy's!!
Yes I have been lazy about getting the motor sold?? I was thinking of pulling the head off to see if there was a reason for the over heating (sand or something) Then I said no just get rid, then I will look to now it just sits there.
I am going to put on ebay!! I have the motor, oil tank, and wiring for it. I also have a Digital all in one Tac for a older Yamaha.
Gee I am sitting on some money here!! Were is the wrench!! :o
