82 liquifire

Post by Farmer »

Here is the low mile 82 liquifire I acquired all cleaned up. The only thing I painted was the skis and the exhaust. I resealed the engine also. Just waiting for some snow :canadasmile:

Is that a galvanized grinder in the back ground?

Haha usually the phrase used around here is green grinder. It's big and red and the only non green piece of machinery around this place.

750 miles and counting. I've put about 30 miles on it and it runs out nice. I actually don't know if I should keep driving it or preserve its low mile title.

That is an age old question. To drive or not.

Personally If it is maintained well and you want to drive it, then drive it.

If it was mine I would drive it some, or sell it and find one with more miles to drive.
