Gas being a solvent, I'd think it would remove the dye verses leaving a stain.

Agreed. I know I won't get the extra battery. That was alway icing on the cake anyway. I'll never deplete the 1.

Thanks Scott. The second order did go through. The bike was cheaper with the same motor, frame, and battery but lower spec components. Anyone who has seen me ride knows I will never know the difference. :) I'll pick it up Saturday.

That's the worst shit show I've seen in a long while. I suspect the other manufacturers are sitting on a ton of stock and sales will be seen through the next year if not longer. There will be other opportunities.

Yamaha has announced exiting the US market for ebike sales so that's the reason behind these killer deals. Parts and service will still be available through the dealer network and the 5 year warranty will still be honored. Now, to the bad news if you had ordered a bike. The yamaha USA website...

Have a blast bud. Get ready for more people than you have ever seen there. Huge waits to leave, and sometimes to get in. Lots of new drivers of side by sides so be careful and expect someone over every rise.

What's the story on the 500X? Based on an XL500 frame or a 500 motor swapped in an atc chassis?

The site used to be much simpler in this regard. We had only one buy/sell forum. It covered everything from buggies to garden rakes and I checked it out several times a day. We had a handful of tech forums. There may have been only 13 forums total and it was easy to pop in to read everything...

Won't ship to Ca. Smokin deal though just at a glance, I would think this is a throwaway genny.

That's a crazy deal on the Specialized for $3500. My mind justified the big sale because Yamaha doesn't have a big bicycle presence here in the USA but Specialized = apple pie. I bought a 2021 Trek Slash for full pop so I know what you mean about the sales price hurting.

I looked at the turbo levo and there is a model that looks to be similarly specc'd to the yamaha for $5500. The turbo levo alloy. Slightly bigger battery and slightly less travel. Both have rockshox 35mm forks and select shocks, 1X12 drive, good brakes, etc. The Specialized is twice the price...

I don't know. I don't need another mountain bike but the deal was too good to pass up so I gambled. I have a confirmation email receipt from yamaha and my card has been charged. No other emails or messages yet. I keep waiting for the gotcha. I keep looking for it. I can't find it. I used my...

Costco had $100 in gift certs for $80. I like a meatball or coldcut trio.

I've just ordered a Moro 7 full suspension mountain bike. The deal is so good I'm still trying to figure out what the catch is. While not a mainstream bicycle manufacturer here, Yamaha have been building bicycles for the Japanese market and came out with the first electric bicycle drivetrain in...

I tried the black and decker lead acid mower. Batts lasted 3 years. Punted it and bought a honda gas mower. I loved my makita string trimmer though. If I were to try battery today, I would look at makita. Seems to be the most serious about building a quality tool.

If I ran the company, I would pay as little as possible to get the result necessary. That is the job of the CEO and their management levels. I would pay the same for raw material or production supplies. As little as possible to get the result I wanted. And then I would collect my $15,000,000...

What were the CEO bonus's of some of the fortune 500 companies that use that port? What is their (Longshoremen) current wage? What has the raise schedule been in the last 5 years? What has the cost of living gone up by? What is the demand for their labor?

I'll play devils' advocate here. You are witnessing one of the few and possibly one of the last uses of leverage that laborers have left. The stock market is crazy high no matter where you look. Record profits at many big companies. Eff you money is everywhere but very little makes its way down...

Unless the frame is a well known builder, I would think parting it out would yield the biggest payoff. The tank looks rough. Wheels are dated, pipes are stock maybe? Welds aren't horrible but for a custom, not great. And that motor is a big question mark.

I was able to score a $150 3 ton extended reach jack at 8:05AM but looks like the jacks would be sold out soon after. Your HF may still have stock available. Could be some other good deals coming up in the next few days also. https://www.harborfreight.com/10-days-of-deals
