Homegrown Garage Green One -75

Wow, what an article, what a workshop, what equipment !!!! (not that I am jealous or anything, yea right haha)
I am in awe of your skill set. Thx for posting all this.
What I need is similar on an 1108cc unit.
I'm really hope to inspire others to to the same, simple cheap mods that makes your engine more agile with minor cash invested. I wishes I had more machines so could do things more proper, flattening the warped head would have been easy with a milling machine but I worked around it with flat table and elbow grease.
Happy you like my tread looking forward to see your 1108 build.
 
GreenOne keeps up being very versatile
We started winter preparations bringing fire wood from fathers farm. 3m3 on three trailers so I guess we had massive overload.
Trailer weight for GreenOne is 500kg maximum and trailer itself is 200kg so net load is just 300kg legal. Some weeks ago our municipality gave away 500m2 concrete slabs 50x50x5cm for grabs. We managed to go five rounds 15 slabs (450kg)on trailer and three (90kg)in the boot.
Today we drove some bushes/trees to fathers farm and picked up a lathe that have been sitting in his shed for 10-15 years. Dismantle as much as possible so i can manage the weight by myself and experience.
New place for the lathe is in my train shed, so managed to ensemble most of the lathe bet it had a rough time so som welding and fix is needed.
Think I sorted major stuff today. One thing that is good with my father is that he know how to use oil, so everything is well lubrcated
All this hard work GreenOne managed really good but fuel consumption was worst ever with 0,84l/10km. Front wheels also suffered from start with heavy trailer resulting in skid marks on first gear.
Half a liter 10-60 oil she got in the morning.
Something I have to sort soon is connecting the choke mechanism cos she is running rough before working temperature.
