Swamphunter Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Ok...so what is everyones "winter plans"...after the season ends? Mine is to work on my motorcycle in changing it into more of a pro street type bike. I have a 1996 HD Dyna Lowrider, and my winter plans are to change the front forks from a narrow glide to a wide glide, to lower the rear end about 1 - 1 1/2", to change my kickstand to a forward/ frame mounted kickstand, and change the exhaust over if money permits. I am also replacing throttle cables, clutch cables and brake lines over to braided as opposed to the black ones that are currently there. I'll have before and after pics by winters end.

Master_Chief Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Going to redo the hulls on my Hobie 16 catamaran. Replace the trampoline on it closer to spring sailing time. Other than arrowing some nice deer not much planned. Oh yeah we do have the 1st grandchild due in Nov. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c_lou Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 I have our laundry room left to paint. Kitchen cabinets need to be re-faced. Fire place mantle needs to be stripped and re-stained. Other than that not much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 I'm going to hunt through February. After that, who knows. No real big plans for anything as of now. I know I could throw away 3/4 of my basement and never miss a thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfletch7441 Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 JaLynn wants me to build a couple flower beds around the front porch. Sooner or later, I've got to flatten a spot in the front yard so I can build a swing set for the girls. I need to finish fencing off our yard, build a set of double doors for our barn, finish the lean-to off of the barn, and in the spring, get 4-5 pallets of sod on our front yard. I'm sure there's more, but that should keep me busy for a few months. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palssonater Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Lots to do this winter. I need to regasket my 35HP evinrude. Work on getting my 1988 Yamaha Bravo running again for ice fishing season. Run 240v into the garage for heat before the snow flies and ground freezes. Undercoat my truck. The list goes on and on. I just finished building a 200ft 6ft vertical plank fence though. That was my summer accomplishment. Maybe I'll get a chance to go search up a moose now!

M00N Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 Hopefully adding my goodies to my bow. More than likely property shopping, though, if things keep going in the direction they are going now. Looks like we're going to get forced to move soon. I hate eminent domain threats. I'd be glad to be out of the flood zone though, but hate the purchasing new land and moving part. It's a tough thing to find for a good price around here.

Grant-KS Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 Thinking about re-painting the right and front fairings on my 1997 Yamaha FZR 600, and maybe re-jetting the carbs and cleaning them out. Would also like to get the 1985 Yamaha Tri-moto 200 going again. Needs new chain/sprocket/sprocket keeper, carb. needs to be adjusted, needs a new seat, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lil hunter Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 hopefully build something like this. But I have to find one thats a little more beat down first. And get a little more $$ as well, but that won't be hard after football season is over. If I don't do that, I'd like to do a few things with my truck, but I don't know if I ever will or not. Grant KS, check out ebay to get deals on parts for your tri-moto. and you can go to www.3wheelerworld.com or www.3wheeler.org to get help, info, or parts for it also.
