    Them 24,s just dont like ya Plott,I cant believe the stupidity of someone cutting the tube,but its only steel all can be repaired,gonna have to do some number checkin cause I got a bunch of sprockets new never used for dual chain and some chain,going to have to amass stuff that is no longer relevant to the Avenger make a pile and have the Innisfil picker come down and do a bundle up dealeo,good thing you still got a Demo machine for the spring.N.C.T

    damn those 24" tires are to tight on the conquest as well.gonna have to go visit NCT and measure some tires.did a compression test on the engine and my suspicions were correct.25 psi on rear cylinder and 125 psi on front cylinder,gonna have to pull the engine down.all the sprokets and chain look good but i believe the bearings are kaput.also someone has cut slots in the rear tube of frame to get the bearing extension bolts out.must have done that to get at the nuts????????????.body is in good condition though so goona start looking for some parts and pce's then pull this sucker apart.

    ok so i chose the worst possible day to pick this sucker up.complete whiteout conditions from barrie to arthur ontario,but i made it there and back with no incidents.heres a few pictures will post some more up when i get time to look things over.i think this conquest came from smogs neck of the woods,RS Bloduc argo is the sticker on the muffler shroud.it runs,blows a little blue smoke when warmed up and also missing some govoner linkage components.overall i think i will do alright with it.

    Hey Plott whens the day that you own it ? Carrie and I are looking at a trip to camp mid March,probably going to take the Argo up rather than the sled and if thats the case we will pull up the enclosed so we could do another Timmy,s meet and greet.N.C.T
