djh3 Posted July 2, 2015 #28 Posted July 2, 2015 Glad it was as simple as battery. Those rotery bikes were heavy and if I remember loud. Not as good as the ole water buffalos imop.
CMCOFFEY Posted July 2, 2015 Author #29 Posted July 2, 2015 Well now I am pinned down by a storm. I just want to find a hotel and go to sleep.
CMCOFFEY Posted July 4, 2015 Author #31 Posted July 4, 2015 Made it home to a comfortable 108 degrees. The mountain passes in Arizona were fun, but I now need a new rear tire. Heat + trailer + curves = trashed tire. They survived though.

Not for a young desert rat like Coff Fool,, he sucks up that dry desert heat like a kid with a glass of Kool Aid!!! Glad you made it safely in Coff, can totally relate to the way that hot tarmack eats tires - cept never experienced it on a scoot pulling a trailer.. It sure seems like it wouldnt help in the tire wear department.. How many miles did you get out of that tire?
CMCOFFEY Posted July 4, 2015 Author #34 Posted July 4, 2015 I am at 13K on e3's. Not bad. They looked good when I left Texas. The desert killed my rear tire.
djh3 Posted July 5, 2015 #35 Posted July 5, 2015 But its a dry heat ! Yea rite, like an oven. Glad you finally made it home OK.
Yammer Dan Posted July 5, 2015 #36 Posted July 5, 2015 Even with the Dry Heat that is HOT!!!! Another reason not to pull a trailer. I have been considering one of the "cargo racks "?? that would mount on the rear hitch to pack the lighter bulky stuff on that would be easy to drop off when at a campground or behind a barn somwhere!! Just wondering about handling differences with something hanging back there?? Put some "Wheelie bars" on it?? Or I could sell bike and buy camper for the Ranger......:Avatars_Gee_George:
