lonestarmedic Posted November 10, 2007 #1 Posted November 10, 2007 Hi everyone. I am in Ft. Worth bedded down for the night. The bike has run great both days. Been getting 43mpg today while running 80-85. No leaks, no squeaks, and just a rattle or two. The old girl really runs well. I do see a bit of dampness on the outside of the right carbs. Been there a while. Also, Todd the tick I heard has to be an errant spark at idle. I can correlate the erratic idle to the tick. The Corbin seat and backrest were worth the extra trouble. I believe BlackJack was right. The other bike was just a small stop on the way to getting the bike that was really calling me. See some of you tomorrow at the show. And see the South Texas gang when I get home. I want to plan a meet and eat someplace between all of us in a couple weeks. Notice the two somewhat cold but excellent looking 1st Gens. Wonder who they belong to? J. B.

86er Posted November 10, 2007 #3 Posted November 10, 2007 Looks like you're having a great time! Man, wish I could've joined you. But, hey, at least you've got the second best looking bike in that first picture!
sarges46 Posted November 10, 2007 #5 Posted November 10, 2007 What a great "rolling" journal you have kept up! I wish I had done that when I drove my bike home from Georgia this spring. Thanks and I am sure glad you are enjoying your new bike!
Mariner Fan Posted November 10, 2007 #6 Posted November 10, 2007 Yea, us Northerners are jealous! Thanks for sharing your trip.
