    Manual Clutch

    Red Beard video did not impress me one bit. Seemed like there was a lot of strain on the engine. I think I will spend $200 on something else.

    Pulsa Jet Flooding

    Pulsa Jet Flooding

    No worries ...... I am definetly tired of seeing predator 212cc everyplace I look. The flathead build is more of a nostalgia thing and also to be able to say I have done that. This reminds me of a 1979 jeep cj-5 I bought 12 years ago. Parts were limited and mostly stock. All I seen when I...
