What the heck did you type into Google translator? When I put the above in, the translation to English is "In fact, it should be turning. As my cheap bastard."

I need to order cutters, as all I had here was a finishing cutter. I had a crap head to play with, and didn't really do more than do some cuts. It will work just fine! :thumbup:

Took the H2 out again yesterday for a few errands and it ran like crap, like the chain was WAYYYY to tight, seemed to work just to get moving... High revs ok but just seemed to work to hard to move, sometimes I HATE owning this thing for so many years, even a little twitch I notice (because I know when it's good or bad or just not right).

The motor has been tired for years though, been something like 20+ since the bottom end was gone though. I have time before the GAP next year, maybe I'll just tear it down this winter and do a crank and general lower end check and fix. The broken return spring on the kick starter has been a royal PITA for 15 years and especially since I went with the longer shocks it's REALLY a PITA reaching down to pull it up (longer reach with one leg on the ground reaching - belly bigness not help either - shut up John I know what you're thinking :crazy: ).
