Bad things come in three's I tell you! This is my third bad gear box this week. Unfortunately I have to repair this one as they don't make them anymore and if they did the price was $2600. Ordered up some cast rod and some nickle rod.

Hey Lou! Bum deal on those gear boxes. Is it misuse or age mixed with wear & tear?

Afternoon Hooligans!

I've been scavenging the area for good two-up sleds. I've narrowed it down to this dirty girl.

'15 King w/3500 miles.

I've checked it out and it's solid. I am meeting the dealer tomorrow.

Surely there is a motel/hotel between you and Starbucks where you can bed down for the night and continue on the next morning.

One was operator abuse. The other two were old age.
