I would like to disassemble and clean the Mikuni carbs on a '96 Polaris 500. I have not done this before but I do have some pretty detailed instructions from the net. Am I foolish to tackle this or is it a procedure that I should be able to do with the help of written directions? The sled has been in storage for a while and I would rather be safe - than sorry.
Don't take me wrong, I'm not anti-technology. Battery powdered items will always have their place. I'm mean you don't want your girl friend or wife in the bedroom playing for their gas powered adult toys!! That would be a bit loud and smokey!
That’s right. My 84 year old dad loves his electric chain saw. Light weight and quiet. Besides, at his age he’s not cutting a bunch. Where as myself I want something with more power and heavier duty. Look at how many people have switched back to gasoline cars after running one in winter if you travel a lot.
As long as my strike master works I’ll keep using gas. Maybe my next will be electric, but who knows, you can find used gas ones pretty reasonable as others buy electric.
