The problem with scooters is the wheel size (diameter) the small wheels are deflected more by rocks, potholes, ect. Than motorcycles that have larger wheels. The difference between a cheap one and a more expensive is probably things like cables, lights and other similar items. A 150 cc will probably run 65 to 70 wide open.

Don't know about the BX 23 but on the BX 22 SAE 80 or 90 gear oil is an OK lube right in the manual. I would not be afraid to put it in. UDT runs right out of mine but the Gear oil stays in .

Ahhh Moving the stove and welding in the kitchen...You are a braver man than me or not married. Of course you can make an extension cord. I never saw it done for the stove but for dryers. It is just a matter of matching up the plugs. Youa are gonna need to some big wire. I have some 50 amp motorhome cable that I use but it probably is actually to small.

we looked for 3 years over three counties and finaly just gave up and built one. Lots of luck finding a used one that has what you want and are willing to pay. All the ones we liked were way over priced and when you ask why they were selling you got Oh we are going right down the road and build a new one. Yep but not with my money.

To me totaly flat and smooth ATV trails are positively booring. I would weave between trees were possible and leave some whoops and water crossings if possible.

I vote plastic. I have two of them a 550 gal and 1250 gal one. They are relativly cheap and easy to move around when empty and come with threaded in/out connectors. make sure to get a dark one green or black not the clear ones as they will let light in and allow alge to grow.

Never owened a gator but did have a mule. 100% bullet proof. But if I were buying new I think I would get the Kubota. It kinda depends on how fast you want to go. I think the mule is probably faster. And price.But I think they are prety close in price.

The Bx does not lock with light pressure on the lock pedal. You must hold pressur on it and then it will move down like it is going into a notch. I expect he is not holding pressure on the diff lock. Most of the time the machine has to be moving for it to go into lock.

Ok I read what you want to do. I reccommend a small machine. Bx kubota size. Front loader, rear mower. You can use the FEL for cleaning paddocks maybe moving snow if you do not have a lot od snow and for a lot of other things like moving feed bags, bales of hay, ect. Granted it will be one or two bales at a time but the machine does the lifting. I would not buy any other attachments untill I found I really needed them and was sure the tractor worked for you. I do not actualy clean stalls with mine I put the poop in a wheelbarrow and then push it out of the paddock and dump it in the loader and then move it to where I want it with the FEL. I usually just spread it. The loader works OK for this once you learn how to do it. However if you have a gate big enough to get the tractor through you can use the FEL to scoop right out of the paddocks without shoveling. If you realy need a spreader you will be better off with one that does not use the PTO but is driven by the wheels. Hooking the PTO up could be hard for you. The mower will require the PTO to be hooked up but hopefully it would not be a regular everyday type of thing putting the mower on and off. You would have to take the mower off to use the spreader. I could be wrong but do not think you need anything with the back how on it.

A smart alec reply I know but in my opinion if the FEL has paint on it you really do not need it.

Tomato juice does not work The perxiode and baking soda does. It actually chemicaly reacts with the skunk oil. You need to leave it on for 5 or 10 minutes prior to washing it off.

You might want to check the trailer. My experience that the rental trailers for tractors ect have pintal hooks rather than balls. They usually just loan you a receiver with a pintal on it. so you would need a way to awap the recivers.

Sounds to me like you may pinched some wires when you put the FEL back on. Some them hang down pretty low in the area where the loader sits on the frame.

I think I have exactly what you are looking for. It is a wine cooler about 24X24 inches I bought it at Home Depot. They had several sizes it has a glass front door and looks pretty nice. The brand on mine is Ewave but I am sure it a made in China item. You might want to do a search for wine coolers. They almost always have glass doors so you can show off your wine.
