testing 150's swing arm bushings
after fighting with my carb bowl gasket for an hr or so this morning we finally made it out to the bush.
and wouldn't you know it ...... i pick up a 3" nail buried deep in the tire. :(  been carrying a plug kit with us for over a yr and have never used it till today.  some pics of mrs. midlife testing things out (didn't get one of her pearched on a rock outcrop    took a burn up to a point above sayers lake which is above stave lake where we parked.  got them good n dirty today (cost $6 to hose this mess off)   the mrs. managed to follow me through 95% of what I was doing today....again that 150 amazes me   great day to be out in the bush messing around. might even to a lazy fsr ride tomorrow.

I think it's great Mrs. MidLife enjoys riding ATVs with you!
 Thanks for posting the nice ride report, MidLife.Spud

I think you said to me that the chain used to fall off when climbing hills; did Mrs. Midlife get a chance to try that?
