cowpuc Posted July 31, 2017 #1 Posted July 31, 2017 Had enough tread left on tire #3 to hit Northern Michigan,, got in today and LOOK what was waiting = WOWZY those varmints at Chaparall in California have FAST shipping!! Good thing too cause rear tire #3 since we headed for the east coast back in June and then to the west coast in July is all done at 5089 miles = very good mileage for our history with rear tires!! Also,, to any who attended this years International Rally in Wisconsin and had part in the signing of and sending me this AWESOME shirt I wanna THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart = BEAUTIFUL = you lop eared touring varmints are awesome!! Thank you too to @OrlinEngh for his hard work and part in all that = THANKS OR!! I will wear it with pride!! Also,, for anyone crazy enough to try and be following my video reports on our latest Chasing of The Front Wheel westwardly = if you caught the little video about "the hat"? I am wearing it in these pics = SCREAMIN EAGLE HD HAT = GORGEOUS!! Ok,, nuff nonsense!! Heres a couple pics!! Gotta get #4 mounted and balanced now = planning on being in Sturgis on opening day so I can give those Mom Yam reps the business on this new hot rod,, might wanna stick with Tweeksis and I on this one = could get interesting!! V-Twin? The old girl tormented a pair of new Harleys (one I KNOW was a CVO 110 inch with a single rider on it) today on the way home - Tweeks fully loaded as seen in pics = :checkeredflag:,, she's a nasty ol thing when she smells those V-Twins in front of er.. Plan is to do some low speed launches in high gear on the new ones and record it and then retrace the test route on Tweeks and redo it with her at the same speed in top gear and see if there really is something to all this torque vs hp stuff.. Also planning on doing some temp readings to compare - fully recorded of course... Thinking this rally may be a REALLY good place to get some of this done because historically - the Mom Yam shop in Sturgis NEVER has anyone there during the rally as its allllllllllllll about HD - perfect time for doing a LOT of research if my thinking is correct!!!! New York was absolutely NOT the time or place BUT Sturgis? Ohhh yea,, totally different creatures out there!! Going hunting = wish us luck!! Puc
pbjman Posted July 31, 2017 #2 Posted July 31, 2017 Puc went touring in the U.P. and all we get is driveway pics?
Dragonslayer Posted July 31, 2017 #3 Posted July 31, 2017 Now wait a minute Puc, Back in 08 when I was in Sturgis them folks at the Ma Yam shop was a big help to me when I had to tear down the bike and rebuild my 1st Gen in their parking lot. They even let me pitch a tent a spend the night. It was handy just having to walk inside for parts.
cowpuc Posted August 1, 2017 Author #5 Posted August 1, 2017 Puc went touring in the U.P. and all we get is driveway pics? Ol Pucster is only at about 5% on getting his video blog of this months California tour up,,, at this rate I am gonna have to take a month off from this wearing out rear tires just to get caught up on my pics...... Oh well,,, guess thats what retirement is alllll about - sooo many tales to tell and so little time to tell em.. Now wait a minute Puc, Back in 08 when I was in Sturgis them folks at the Ma Yam shop was a big help to met was handy just having to walk inside for parts. WASNT TALKIN ABOUT ME Bob!!! Was on about the "normal" Rally rider out there.. As for yours truly = right there with ya = stop in and see those Yammin guys every time I hit the rally = gotta make sense of it all somehow!!! Nice hat puc :rotfl::rotfl: ROCK ON BROTHER = she's a DANDY!! Definitely worth holding up traffic in the middle of Wyoming for I tell ya!! Folks can say what they want about The Motor Company but I gotta say = they do have AWESOME accessory clothing AND wowzy - do they have GORGEOUS scoots IMHO... Among other things = NO ONE - and I mean NO ONE paints motorcycles like HD .. I picked up a brand new left over Concord Purple wide glide back in 01 for resale.. The Gold HD emblem on the tank looked like it was embedded miles into the purple color around it = just GORGEOUS!! Someone in those HD walls has some REAL talent = no doubt about it!!

Got the Badddest 1st Gen known (Dingy Might wanna discuss that) and she just sits. Tip, Tweeksis and I will gobble one up and spit one out in honor of you and Sugar bro!!! Matter of fact,,,,, if I can remember (been having small issues with this these days) I will even record a short vid and scream "this ones for you Brown Sugar" as we surf in and out of the Sturgis Pylons out there that happen to be in the shape of a "V" :guitarist 2:
