@@michaeltolomei6623 rah fam ford knowingly fkd ppl over dude

They always want to be a part of your day at some point, I really enjoy my two!

Ferrets are obligate carnivores, they are not meant to digest anything that isn’t meat.

not anymore, she has a friend now, named caspian. and he's a huge ferret compared to her XD.

​@michaeltolomei6623 how is that working out? I have a girl a lot like yours. Thinking about getting her a friend

@@TheOneNashon So after we got her a friend, it took a little bit, she eventually warmed up to Caspian, but, it took some time, and he does play a little rough with her, she screeches up a storm sometimes though some of it is play I think. They do sleep together, and seem to get along, but she still breaks away for her own time and sometimes Caspian will annoy her in those moments. I think she's better for having him, but I also feel like she could have easily just remained alone if she had too. she's very bonded to me. Caspian almost increased that bond because now she'll follow me around the house and just sorta, pause and look up at me. it's funny. I'd advise you bring your girl in to the store to meet her possible friend, that's what we did. Just be ready because at first she'll feel a touch defensive of having another in her space. That's how Kira was, but as soon as they finally sleep in the same spot, the bond is started.

@@TheOneNashon i js got my girl a friend a few mth ago, She wasnt playing w her new friend til about a week and a half but they were fine eating and sleeping together before that and now theyre fully locked in and play so much. as long as theyre just dooking and theres no high pitched squealing they are just playing

@@michaeltolomei6623 niceeee my first one ever ( now gone) was so chunky but when i brought her home a friend who was only a few mths old and underweight they played so well

I didn't, it can be very tough to get that one right, typically though, they will pick a corner, and it will be a common spot, if you happen to get the right size box that your ferret prefers, they ll just naturally use it. In the case of Kira and Caspian, they don't much like the little corner box I got, so they tend to move it then go hahaha, mind of their own. Other Ferret owners may have some tricks up their sleeve, the only one I can think is finding the spot and going from there. sometimes you can take some of their droppings and move them to a box, and that can work, but it just depends on the ferret.

Yeah I just learned this today. Had to put my 3 year old ferret to sleep. He developed some kind of bladder or UTI infection. Came here to watch ferret videos to help cope with the pain.

yep. the only 2 saving graces in the project are. it's a simple OHV engine, and the gasket sets are cheap, so at least it's easy enough to refresh. at some point I'll be tackling this, but I also need to refresh the exhaust system as mine is swiss cheese. So, in order to make this truck better then crap, I want a plan for that as well XD. Might even hire custom and dual it up just for sound and looks

love mine, we got two now, and it took a little while for her to come around, but now she enjoys his company. still finds time for herself though, she's got her moments lol.

have I got a video for you, we just bought another ferret, and she.... prefers to be alone hahahha. the entire reason I got him was to see, and of course, she's being a brat about it all. hisses constantly at him, but is very slowly getting better about the idea. When I picked Kira out from her sisters, I could tell she was a bit different, she slept alone, was far less active, and I just had a feeling that for the time, she'd fit. at any rate I am now 700$ in between the two of them, at 350$ a pop, it's hard to have that kinda money ready to go to get started when you still need everything else. She's gone 4 months alone, and now has a friend, and is having to learn the ropes of sharing her space. Trust me when I say this, not all ferrets think alike, and these two are proof of this.

ah one other thing, the semi aquatic remark, webbing on the paws, and being related to otters as they are both mustelids. it was really more of a joke, but they are in the same family.

I owned a couple ferrets long time back when I was a kid, they used to really love water, so it's a hit miss thing, I know of a couple channels on here that have also mentioned this. Some ferrets love water some don't. I know our new boy seems a bit more interested in bath time so that's cool.

@@michaeltolomei6623 she is closer to you than you think!!!! <3

@@TheFallout102 very much so, she'll actually sleep in my arms sometimes, other times she nests near me if I am home and busy. And now we have Caspian, her buddy, they are very happy here and I do what I can for them.

ah yes, thanks Dusty XD

@@michaeltolomei6623 Derek and is daughter loved her lol

I love em, I really wish I had found them 15 years ago. these days my time is limited compared to back then. That being said, I just posted a 75 mile trip out my old counties rail grade, so much fun. It's like riding something from 100 years ago, so simple, and yet satisfying. Ride on man!

no problem man, glad ya liked it.

Glad you enjoyed the ride! takes a bit to throw these together after all the editing and stuff so it's good to know someone's enjoying them!

I've never bought one from bike berry, the price was always why, but honestly it might be worth it to avoid some of the hassles of fitment. One issue I constantly fight on my builds is stock exhaust clearance with the pedals, and engine "sailing" the two mount is not ideal for torque and what tends to happen is the engine will slowly rotate during travels. Honestly a third high mount up high would solve that, but I've yet to add one and instrad eventually it finds a point where the engine will sorta, stop, but it's not a comforting thought heheh. If you're looking to save money, and you're good at improving what they give you, it's worth keeping it cheap, but if you want a more stream line assembly, you might want to go with bike berry. I think that, for the price, this route was worth it, but it did come with it's battles.

And luckily, that engine turned out to be a real keeper over all. so I'm glad I didn't send it back.

not much can be done for timing, if you want to adjust it, you have to modify the crank key to rotate the magneto. The pole plate itself is set where it is. It doesn't usually give me to many issues in starting now. Typically it just comes down to the right blend of choke. I don't start them everyday so that doesn't help the situation. Also that strong ratio they call for really can foul plugs up.

thanks for the thought though.

@@michaeltolomei6623 u can always try new carb with bigger intake mine avenger 85 struggled to start to with stock carb that came with kit but when i used 21mm carb it starts on first try

Thanks man, it turned out quite well I was really pleased, and I've almost already got 100 miles on it. my dad and I rode it for 75 miles round trip and aside from the chain starting to get loose, which I fixed after, it ran flawlessly.

@@michaeltolomei6623 you ever experiment with a jackshaft for those kits? I wanna get one but there's barely any information online about em speed etc.

@@Lil_bitsCS naw, not yet. but I'm aware of them, it basically turns the bike into a multi-speed through the original equipment. I wonder how the derailers would handle the power over time.

this current bike of mine would be the one I'd likely land it on.

thanks man

thanks for watching, and there will be more rides to come, I also have an alternative channel if you ever want to see more goofy stuff. www.youtube.com/@MBM323, this is a pilot channel my buddy and I have been working on. similar content.

@@michaeltolomei6623 Subbed. Thanks for sharing.

Oh just you wait for what I managed to pull off on this project...

@@michaeltolomei6623 can't wait to see. 👍👍

thank you man.

Ebay, there was a shop "cyclesavant" that happened to have a bunch of Nos stuff from the old days. Some items wrapped in original packaging even. not sure what he still has now. occasionally I find some off thing on google search, but most of it was from ebay.

www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_ssn=cyclesavant&_trksid=p4432023.m570.l50838 here's a link to his shop. He deals in a lot of new old stock odd ball bike parts.

I'm from Washington, mine was found in a barn, dead. I got it for free, but put more in to it than she's probably worth lol. Yeah my trick was using magnets to get the weird roller pin bearings to stay put, as well as those funky ball locking bearings. Trouble is with those free little pin bearings is they can wear funny, and I found I didn't much like the way mine were wearing last time I looked in there. A regular bearing race would be so much better. if the bike ever has a fail, and survives it, that's what I'd likely put back in their place.

indeed it was, I used magnets to keep them in place because yeah it's a terrible design. The bike still runs to this day for now. But that transmission is one scary sounding little thing. And I never did get it to shift strong. I can find all the gears but it's a dance cause no matter where I tune the "shift bell" for the drum shaft, it doesn;t seem to limit the kick enough. Bike seems to shift past gears most of the time.

There is a guy in the Netherlands that builds brand new engines it's on you tube

@@luckyfreeman5079 Sounds like something mine could use at least the transmission anyway. Compression wise my engine's gained a few pounds. I did a compression test a week or so back and it was hovering just over 140lbs. When I first completed this, it was only 120~.

no doubt, believe me going through editing and such I was annoyed by that. Just didn't feel like retaking it though.

lol, every time I ride I think that. These things are so simple and cheap once you get the hang of it fixing and installing and all that it's really neat and easy to keep them going, at least so far for me that's the case anyway.
