Nice score.. I have an 82 klt250 three wheeler engine that runs just needs the starter rebuilt or replaced. It's basically the same engine just is only electric start with no kicker. I have been pull starting it behind my other trike. Was going to convert it to both electric and kick and never got around to it. It will just be collecting dust in my attic because I'm putting a 93 gsxr600 engine into the three wheeler. It's free if you want it for just shipping. Back on topic lol. I picked this up from harbor freight for $40. Had this 33/12.50 off the wheel in 5 min flat. Love it!!

Hey Midwest, I don't suppose you've got a link for that thing? Might get a friend to pick me up one on their next cross-border shopping trip. If there's one thing I hate hate hate, it's changing tires!

With a coupon it would be even less, harbor freight always has a 20% coupon out.

Holy crap, that is half what Princess auto sells them for and with 20% off it pays for itself the first tire change. I need to get one of those!

Find a piece of tube you can hold ithem in and allow them to spin. You'll get a much 'rounder' piece

Lol all things I read after the fact that same day. O well, they will serve their purpose for the hoop.

Honestly I am just now picking up welding and for this my girlfriends dad is going to lay the line for me. I just figured since I had these, I might as well use them. Try not to be so condescending sometimes xb haha
 
well the slugs are a TOTALLY unnecessary, waste of time and effort just weld the goddam thing :D or just fill the frame with lead whatever ;)
 
About 1/2 the people that buy hoops from me ask for slugs as well.
I never use them and have had no issues, but for a beginner welder it's certainly an extra level of confidence that the weld is strong and your GF isn't going to fall off the back when you hit a bump 8)
