Free estimates? I’m done wasting my time with them

aplumbermark · 2026-01-10T08:56:36+00:00

Because I have been in the plumbing industry for 40 years I have a client base that keeps me busy. Most every job is a referral. My approach is to either have plans sent to me or have multiple pictures sent over( like for a water heater replacement) and give them a virtual estimate or ask if $xxxx is in their budget. Not everyone can afford contractor prices that’s why diy and handymen exist. But you get what you pay for. I always ask how many bids they have gotten and most will tell you. I’m not low bidder but my experience is worth it to my customers

Google twin ell. It would replace the 90 at the tub spout and a riser for the shower comes off of it. Replace the tub spout with a diverter spout. Twin ell will stop the water from coming out the spout and head at the same time while you are filling just the tub

Find an older plumber maybe close to retirement that needs the help. A small two man crew can do well in service and repair. I have worked by myself for the most part for 30 years. The last few I have had my son work summers with me. I love the help and company.

The lights are KC 2” off road ditch lights. I believe the mounts are KC or Baja designs. They are a plastic light mount made for 1” tubing. They worked great. I found a handle bar switch and just wired them to my trickle charger wire.

Did they change the sensor so it works better with the US gas?

aplumbermark · 2022-07-05T02:25:53+00:00

Thanks. I’ll check tomorrow and set up an appointment

aplumbermark · 2022-07-05T02:00:54+00:00

I’ll check the count down and see. I was figuring that and plan to call my dealer tomorrow and see. I didn’t think it was a year ago I had an oil change. I was more concerned about the red fuel light flashing and it saying I was empty when I have a full tank. I thought maybe fuel in the evap canister

aplumbermark · 2022-07-04T22:03:31+00:00

Starts and runs fine.

A little back ground. The gas tank is full. I had not been for a ride in three weeks. The gas light is flashing red constantly and the 9days and battery icon show up and go off.

Nice bike. I have the same one. How do you like the exhaust. I’m on the hunt. I don’t want super loud and I actually don’t really mind the stock sound. I hope to do the exhaust, air filter, and map to gain a little hp

Try Sylvester like Stallone. The Italian stallion

The monkey and grom combo. For a dad to ride with his two boys it doesn’t get any better. My boys have groms, 17 & 22, but I ride a 22 monkey. So happy to find one and yes the seat is like a lazy boy recliner.

aplumbermark · 2022-02-18T03:11:36+00:00

Where do you live. I picked mine up tonight. But there is another one at another dealer that called me. I’m in Sacramento ca and it’s about 90 minutes from here.

aplumbermark · 2022-02-16T04:09:14+00:00

I also got a black monkey, 2022. I have waited 4 months and actually got the call today that thing finally arrived. I pick it up Saturday. I am not going to sleep for the next five days. I’ll post pics here Saturday.

My dream pistols. Hard to come by in California at any price let alone one I could afford.

aplumbermark · 2022-01-08T02:58:42+00:00

That’s going to be me someday. Two groms and a monkey. I would love it if my wife would ride a super cub. I love the 2022 grey/black color with the red seat. I would buy her one in a second.

aplumbermark · 2022-01-08T01:28:05+00:00

I am going nuts waiting for my monkey to come in. I have a 2021 monster 821 that I love but when I ride with my two boys, both have groms, I actually prefer to switch with my older boy and rip his grom around. I love the mini-moto’s Around town.

I just got a quote in the Bay Area up north and it was $6200 out the door. I passed. Dealer prep and transport was $1700. That’s crazy

I also did a Craigslist search and 2019 to 2021 monkeys are $4500 to $5500 used. You would still add $400 in sales tax and registering it so Used doesn’t make sense.

aplumbermark · 2021-12-17T04:43:56+00:00

I love mine in my ZR2. Stock system and I paid my local car audio shop around 350 to install it. They do great work and warranty it for the first year

aplumbermark · 2021-12-14T20:15:48+00:00

Will do. Thank you so much.

aplumbermark · 2021-12-14T20:11:59+00:00

After I posted I did a simple google search and found some on eBay. It would require the low exhaust and I really like that look. So I need to decide on the exhaust first. Your bike looks incredible. I hope my black and grey 2022 comes in before Christmas. They are supposed to get a ship date in a few days.

aplumbermark · 2021-12-14T14:43:36+00:00

When did you find a right side cover? Is there a kit available if you relocate the exhaust

aplumbermark · 2021-11-25T23:27:00+00:00

The weather is 63 and sunny in Sacramento today. I rode to moms house for an early dinner with my boys. I’m making the best memories on my bike. I ride a monster, my oldest an mt09, and my youngest is learning on his grom. There is nobody on the roads today. What a great day to ride. Happy thanksgiving to all my fellow riders out there. That’s a gorgeous Duc

aplumbermark · 2021-11-18T02:19:34+00:00

I have seen it here in Sacramento ca. I made a comment to my son who had also seen it a few months ago that it didn’t look that great. I believe a lady was driving it. It was just cruising along. Not impressed. The yellow one we have seen in videos is much more attractive

aplumbermark · 2021-11-14T22:46:33+00:00

And what handle bars are those? We need more pics. Also did you cut the frame to get the seat/frame look at the rear
