Hey Bill, hope you and your's are doing OK. I've sold my scooter and my Indian Scout. For health reasons I decided it was better if I stopped riding. Haven't had the inclination to make any other videos. Most of my days are quite boring now. Anywho, thanks for checking in. :D

Last Grizzly machine I'll ever buy.

I regret trading my DN01 back in 2017. I bought an Indian Scout and customized the heck out of it. The Scout was a beautiful bike but it was not as fun as, nor did it get the kind of attention I did with the DN01. The DN was a great bike and is very underrated imho. Enjoy your new black one. Thanks for watching and commenting.

No, these are soft bags.

It's been ~7 years and i don't have the bike any longer. I don't recall if I installed any bushings. I don't think I did.

You and me both! I sold my DN01 a few years back and regretted it ever since. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching and commenting. Yes, I have been very happy with the cart. I've hauled loads of rocks up to 500 lbs with no issue (other than me trying to pull it through the deep grass lol). I do wish there was a brake mechanism on it. On hard unlevel ground it will roll away on you if you do not chock the wheels.

Ouch... Easy to do. Hope you got it back together OK.

@@RC62 I ran a triangle file down all the grooves of the spline really slow and as precise as I could by hand. Everything slides on and off good and grabs the splines nice. I am just really gonna take my time putting it all back together this time. I was all cocky yesterday and going fast because I have been taking it off and putting it back together figuring out what weights I like best. Turns out 5.5 works the best for me but now I am gonna move as slow as a turtle putting it all back together this time.

Glad to hear you got it sorted out. I don't recall what the final weights were that I used. Took several tries to get it dialed in. For health reasons I had to stop riding. I sold the Ruckus a couple years ago and sold my 2017 Indian Scout last year. I miss it but the risk had grown too great vs the reward. It's a bear getting old. Ride safe and have fun on your Ruckus. :D

@@RC62 man that sucks I am sorry to hear that. Yes it sucks getting old and it’s sad but you have to live young while you can. Life didn’t start catching up to me until I hit 30. I slowed down a lot and started telling myself I can’t do the things I used to do when I was a teenager and I kinda just settled for that thought process for a few more years. Then it just hit me how many friends I have lost along life’s journey, all who’s lives were cut way too short and I started to realize that tomorrow is promised to no one so I may as well enjoy life while I can. Here I am at 40 acting like step brothers lol.

I wish I was in my 40's again. I'm over 60 now and my 40's were certainly my best years. Yeah I wasn't as spry as I was in my 20's and 30's but for me it was my peak. :D

Yeah, it was quite different and got a lot of looks and comments.

Heavy is relative... As a younger man I would not think it that heavy either. As an old guy with arthritis, damaged joints, and other health issues 200lbs can get away from me quickly and cause injury. Thanks for watching and commenting.

You are welcome, thank you for watching.

Yes it does.

How do you like it ? Heave you milled anything with it?

@@jeffwarhawk517 A couple weeks after making this video I was laid off of my job. I decided to retire early and we had to downsize to a smaller home and cut expenses. I wound up selling the drill/mill and the mini lathe as I did not have any space for them at the new house. Never even used it or the lathe even once.

@@RC62 Sorry to hear that

Hello sir, yep been quite a while since I posted anything. My health hasn't been so good the last couple of years. I sold my Indian Scout and my Ruckus scooter. Not in good enough shape these days to ride safely. Hope you and yours are doing well. Thanks for "checking in". Take care. 🙂

@@RC62 Doing good here, ya I sold my Silverwing, did not feel safe on it anymore, these drivers here in Tennessee are crazy so being retired I didn't want to shorten that part of my life because of that if you know what I mean. Good to hear from ya and I hope ya get better.

@@RC62 I have been going down memory lane and wanted to know how you have been doing. I hope things are Ok and you are happy. 🙂

Hey Spicy how's it going? My wife and I are doing OK. Had to sell my bikes, I can't ride anymore due to health issues. Hope you and yours are OK. Good hearing from you.

I never got the chance to even use mine. I was laid off my job just before covid hit. Had to downsize and didn't have the room at the new house for the mill or the Grizzly mini lathe I bought. Sold them both for almost what I paid for them though. The price on them new almost doubled during the pandemic and there was a strong demand.

I finally got them adjusted. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Thanks for watching!

:D

Glad you liked it! Thanks.

Thanks.

It rode nice at highway speeds. :-)

No, I sold it back in 2017. Wished I'd kept it though.

@@RC62 I have an opportunity to purchase one with 3700 miles. Would recommend this bike?

I very much liked mine.

I kinda fast forwarded through that at around the 2 min mark. I showed how they come out of the variator in part 2 kzbin.info/www/bejne/rWbOpoCefLNsb8k installation is just reverse of that.

Yes, a manual staple gun should work fine.

Installs on existing seat... Utopia Backrests are here: www.utpr.com/crossover.html Hope you enjoy your trike. :D

I bought the Hurcules Auxiliary Mirrors from Amazon. Don't know if they still sell them as it was about 10 years ago. If you go to Amazon and search for "Auxiliary Mirror" you may find something similar.

Hyalgan injections are the only non-emergency medical procedures I do not regret. Although not typical, ater 11 years my knee is still better than it was. Depending on your doctor's skill and technique it can hurt a little but it was well worth the needle pokes for me. I had no side effects other than the knee being a bit sore for a day or two. At the time, I worked from home but I still took the day off and used ice packs to help the swelling. Definitely do not do any laborious work for a day or so (your doc should advise you what is OK). Best of luck with the injections.

I do not recall as I bought them over 12 years ago. I believe they are Cortech but couldn't say what model.

@@RC62 thanks for responding. I’m looking at a 2009 with about 11K miles. Looks & runs nice. Also might be considering a 2010 NT700V, 3k miles new tires & battery. Looks great in pix. Any thoughts ?

@@michaelduff388 You're welcome. I try to respond to all comments. I sold my DN01 in 2017, I kinda regret it as it was a great bike. I had added a better windshield as well as a seat backrest that made the DN01 more comfortable. I don't have any 1st hand experience with the NT700V so can't comment. btw... The saddle bags apparently were discontinued but there was a newer model "Cortech Super 2.0 Saddlebags" that may still be available.

Thanks Again!!😉

I got rid of the boat in 2014. Gave it to my wife's brother-in-law.

Sorry, I sold my DN01 5 years ago.

Yes, it was a bit hard to mount things to the handlebars. There is a plastic cover over most of it.

While Harbor Freight known for selling a lot of "junk", they do have some good products at a decent price too. I agree about the weight of the jack. Thing is massive. Thanks for commenting. :D

You're welcome. I'm accepting donations to help cover my sacrifice. :D lol

got any suggestions? Looking for something somewhat smallish that runs on 120v

The surgery was absolute hell for me. Since the surgery my sinus pain has not only gotten worse but more frequent. I suffer more days with intense pain in my sinus than I did before. It is now rare for me to not have any sinus pain. The surgery was a very big mistake for me. I really hope that it helps you. I'd be interested in hearing from you again in a couple months or so on how well you are doing. Good luck.

The original pegs on the Scout have a thin wire on the pin and it was a pain to get off. Getting the new clips on wasn't hard with the retaining clip pliers. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Doin' as well as possible. Hope you and yours are doing OK. Thx for watching and commenting.

@@RC62 Your very welcome ☘️

Thank you for your comment. I appreciate you watching.

I like RAM MOUNTS brand. They have a wide variety mounts and you can customize for whatever you need. They are not cheap though. I had a mount that attaches to the brake reservoir. It is supposed to replace the reservoir cover but I just attached mine with velcro and tie wraps. If you look in this video to the left of the handlebar you will see another RAM mount attached to the handlebar itself. As I recall it was one of the smaller ball types.

lol. Don't know if that's why it is heavy but certainly causes one to rethink trying to return it. In this case the wheel support was only barely bent in. I've had no issues with it and am still very happy with the box and chest.

@@RC62 thanks bro. It was a good review and I’m actually thinking of getting this same one. 👍

Hi True. We are doing OK. Hope that you and Roo are doing well too. Did you survive Covid OK? I haven't been very active on youtube lately (even less than the previous few years). As I'm sure you know I lost my job at the end of 2019 and I decided to just retire early. We had to move into a much smaller home and even after more than a year we are still trying to sort out all of our stuff. I can't find half of my tools and can't get to about half the rest as the garage here is packed to the ceiling. Most of my time is spent trying to install new things or keep existing things cleaned up and running around here. Take care my friend. Say "hi" to Roo. :-)

@@RC62 surviving it so far mate, worked every day as an "essential worker" but been lucky so far. An early retirement doesn't sound so bad, hopefully you're finding the time to do stuff you've wanted to do for years. That's the trouble with downsizing, you don't realise how much stuff you accumulate over the years until you have to find somewhere to store and organise it. Hope to see a video from you again soon mate, when you find the time and the inclination :)

I really liked my DN01. It handled very well. I never pushed it hard but pretty sure it could have been run faster in the curves with no problem. I traded the DN01 in 2016 for a new 2017 Indian Scout. I like the Scout but do miss the DN01.

Can't say I ever looked for one...

I still have a motorcycle (Indian Scout) but have not ridden much the last couple of years. I completely understand the decision to stop riding. I am hoping to get back into it for a a bit longer. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Other than running through the break-in procedure I have not used the mill. Not long after I made this video I was laid off of my job of 21 years and had to sell my house and move. My new home is much smaller and all of my "toys" are crammed into the garage with no space to work on anything. Eventually I hope to get it sorted but it will be a while. Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@RC62 Sorry to hear that brother. I'm going through a simular situation. after 20 years, have to move to get a new job. I used to do machine and fabrication over 30 years ago, and just purchased this mill to do some light aluminiun milling and modification for side work.

Sorry to hear of you're situation as well. In my case, I went ahead and retired early. Things are tight financially but we are in better shape than a lot of folks so we count our blessings. Hope things work out for you. Take care.

Even as a younger man I never could use a wheelbarrow without dumping it before I got the load to where I needed it. Now that I am an old fart I definitely couldn't. :-)

Thanks for watching.

Really dude you can't wait it out or skim? Not like he was boring IMO.

"Rite" side of the fence. Wrong side of history.

I like the build on these. The smaller one would have been enough for what I need but I always over-do things. lol After selling my JD Zero Turn I now have room in my shed and will keep mine in there. To keep the water out of yours you could turn it over or drill holes in the bed. Not great solutions though. Happy Holidays, stay safe. :D

Thanks, first impressions are it is a well made product. Time will tell. Happy holidays too you and yours. Stay safe. :D

My first impressions of the cart are very good. We'll see once I start abusing it. :D You have a great holiday too my friend. I hope you and yours all stay safe and sound.
