I saw that at the Portland Swap Meet a year or two before Covid. From some angles it works, not so much from others.

when i was a kid, my dad's brother put a yamaha 650 special engine in the back of his honda odyssey. i would stand on the rear of the frame and he would do mile long wheelies with sparks shootin' out everywhere.
not the mini van odyssey, the atv odyssey, like this

The 250 Odysseys like that one weren't really much. When they came out with the 350 Odyssey that thing rocked. A couple years later they had the Pilot which was a liquid cooled 400. I never got to drive one of those but was told they were over the top insane type of excitement. I know my brother rolled one at a Honda Fun Days event in the early 90s. Things like that are probably why Honda quit hosting such events. Lmao

**special-K** · 01-07-2024, 09:38 AM

We'd roll those Odyssey 250s every time we ran them. I thought that was the idea

Yep...my little brother had one, saw him roll it end over end many times. It's a good thing they had those wrist straps to the steering wheel to keep you from putting your arm out.

**HO455** · 01-07-2024, 11:49 AM

Yes they much safer than one of these.

1st pic: I'm a biker. Those are stupid. I'm seeing a lot of that with the next generations who seems to have an M.O, anything but how they did it before. There's a reason for that

2nd: Safety first. WW1 helmet. I've seen a few of these. Wouldn't the motor burn up w/o water, or did they have air-cooled outboards?

3rd: Just plain wild!

Not so Grumpy now

72c20customcamper · 01-09-2024, 07:48 PM

That's awesome. Back in the day I used to see a Triumph TR7 mounted on a 4wd lifted Jeep frame.

**special-K** · 01-10-2024, 09:09 AM

I saved that picture ages ago. I wonder where it is now. Can anyone make out the state on the route number? Our state hiway routes are marked with signs just like that.

You guys go ahead and plow your snow in that cool '57. My plow days are over. I'm going out to play

ps: Hard to believe I got no comments on Bill Jenkins with Jungle Pam

It's Bill but he ain't so grumpy!

For those who prefer having heat and some company along for the ride

72c20customcamper · 01-10-2024, 11:05 AM

NB I just need to air up the tires

**special-K** · 01-10-2024, 12:30 PM

Much more idiocy like that and we'll all be made to get a towing license. An added reg but might not be a bad idea. They could revoke this guy's and make the roads safer.

There's short on You Tube where an SUV that size is hauling a lifted Square body K20 Suburban loaded ass-heavy. He got the tail wagging bad enough for the trailer to scooch the SUV sideways to stop it. Lucky. Didn't roll anything and the 'Burb rear tire on one side jumps off the trailer but otherwise stayed on. The person tied it down well body his loading not so much

72c20customcamper · 01-10-2024, 01:03 PM

Nah I’ve had it loaded heavier before it’ll be fine

**special-K** · 01-10-2024, 09:31 PM

With the changes we made on the rail we expect to knock a good 5 minutes off the ET

There's more than one way to get that lowered ricer look.

Saw this on a C10 posting someone forwarded. Just thought the door advertising "Market and slaughter" was a blast from the past. Maybe a member here???

Better check these chains before something bad happens.
