[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 3065, member: 82"] Welcome to the forum. From what i can see, your machine was built between 1986-1995. You can probably call your dealer with your serial number for an exact year. First of all, i would change the engine oil and hydraulic filter just so you know where you are on maintenance and write the date and hours on the filter so you know when you need to change them again. As for your tires, they should both be the same diameter! if not, the front or back tires will be doing more work. This puts excessive load on your drive chains and can break them. This is why when you change tires you never replace just one, you must do a complete side at a time. Without a load, and moving over un-even ground its normal for the machine to bounce around. Its worse if you have solid tires, you feel every single bump! If you bounce around alot, try moving slower and see how you go. Being such a small machine, i think the fact its so light it will bounce around a little no matter what you do. I hope this of at least a bit of help. [/QUOTE]
