Rappa - Too much play?

[Mc115reed]

Might cost you your life yet mind. Why would to cable tie a ball joint?

My bike never goes on the road, and only does electric fencing can’t exactly flip it over or end up in a mess because you can’t steer electric fencing

What’s the screw-in insulator for??

Ahhhhh that’s screwed into 3 fuses in the fuse box that kept blowing

Oh my gosh. Have to admire the ingenuity; even if it bewilders and slightly scares me

Field as flat as a mill pond, and I still managed to roll my bike.

I've come off 3 wheelers and quad bikes every way possible shepherding in Scotland but never in a flat field. How the bloody hell did you manage that?

Reel post slipped off the stake carrier on one side, dug in the ground slightly and got stuck on the other side. Became a very effective earth brake, slewed the bike round and rolled it. The dog and I were most surprised.

Yea its a lot of weight and my main reason for sticking to a bigger bike.
Local Honda dealer says Rappas kill bikes.

Honda’s build quality is atrocious - the racking is poxy . Suzuki’s are a lot stronger from what I’ve seen

I’ve done exactly that as well, bike was less than a week old and I wasn’t going any faster than 10mph, makes you think!

Did the reel post survive?

No. Just this thread... the things I've seen.

Was a lovely evening for fencing the next break… calm before the storm (literally)!

@Al R has seen the screw in insulator he will vouch for me it’s totally safe

Not all cowboys ride horses… I was more shocked at the melted mess in the fuse box rather than the screw in insulator….
I had a SP beet harvester a few years back with 12 & 24V, 500hp engine and she kept blowing fuse wire. She never blew the 4” nail

Seen plenty of 3000g slurry tankers roll on far flatter fields than that.
