No power here in northern Michigan! 3 days of ice storms have left thousands without power and heat. Now it's starting to get colder out which makes things worse.

Casey and I are fairing well. I have a small Honda generator I borrowed from my parents and it powers my fridge, my tv, & my starlink. I run 1 or 2 burners on my stovetop to keep the house warm and have a small electric fan to pump the heat to the back area of the upstairs region of my house and most important I have a carbon monoxide detector plugged in. We can also charge our phones and power banks. When we are hungry and if we don't want to use the stovetop we can unplug the fridge temporarily (because it's an electricity hog) and plug in the air fryer or microwave. The little generator is great but it cannot run 2 high power consumption items like a fridge, microwave, heater, toaster, etc.

Do not travel unless it's an emergency. This is no joke people! It's bad out!

5 years ago I was getting ready to take this one off custom ice monster out for its first outing. IT WAS EPIC! New updated video coming soon.

Welcome to Uncle Mike's garage, whether your a goofy hillbilly redneck like myself or just want to laugh at one, this may be the channel for you. Cammed Shitboxs, beautiful hotrods, average joe street builds, ATVs, quads, bikes 3 wheelers, side by sides, tractors, fabricating, RC planes and monster trucks, and everything else in between is what I do over here in my neck of the woods ...the red-neck of the woods😉

I just finished editing the video of the Yamaha big wheel I restored (I use the term loosely) that looked like it came up from the hull of the Titanic. This video took place over the past 2 months and I have 40+ hours of editing time into making it that classic "Uncle Mike" style that everyone can relate to, or at least laugh at🤣.
Full tear down, repaint, powder coating, new carb, new reeds, new seat cover, new decals, I did some light port work and geared it down TEN TEETH in the rear sproket so it can haul a 200+lb man with ease! It's a wheelie machine with a top speed of 30 mph still. These vids are starting to get some traction and Its all because of y'all! 💯👍
The video will debut next week and I hope y'all love it!

The 1987 Yamaha BW 80 I pulled up from the titanic is coming out pretty nice. The redneck restoration is almost complete. I'm updating this one so it looks like the next generation compared to its "older brothers" pictured. I went with a 2000's era blue and white like alot of the yamaha bikes and quads around that time.

The motor is in and the bell housing bolts are tight. I am now going to start banging my head against the wall until it quits hurting 🤦 IYKYK

LC6 aluminum 5.3
I'm keeping the motor and selling the rest.

So what do I do with the new motor 🤷🤷🤷🤷
A nice lightweight 5.3 would be perfect for one of my s10s.
THOUGHTS?
