Hopefully the punch marks are denoting that the 2nd gear issue has been fixed.

I’ve heard it the other way around. Eating group with a riding disorder.

PLEASE don’t be talking voting. This here election is about to wring out what little patience I have left. We’re going on a two day ride just to get away from it. We voted early just to get away.

But we bring so much more to the table it’s worth y’all paying to see it. I’m not saying if it’s more knowledge, wisdom, humor, or pure BS.

Motorcycles and eating, aren’t those the requirements for being here? Oh wait there are some cages, Harleys, and Honda’s here too so I guess it’s just eating.

I think the marm and I are gonna make a two day trip over to Cumberland Falls and up to Red River Monday-Tuesday. (Yes we voted early-no we didn’t mail it in so we have the time). I’d tell you which ticket we punched but being offline last week showed me what the penalty box looks like🤣🤣🤣. Anyway back on topic has anyone here rode that area? We’ve ridden the Daniel Boone parkway and the park is nice, should have good color now. We won’t have much time so I’m looking for the highlights. She’s never been to the falls, we went to Niagara Falls last year so these may be a little underwhelming.

Right there with ya. Wife n daughters have all those touch screens, proximity keys, back up cameras, yada yada yada on their vehicles they somehow convinced me to buy for them. I drive a 20 year old Chevy 4x4 that I can wrench on. I trust that truck over them all, won’t hesitate to go anywhere in it.

Hey I resemble that.

It had me in Maine. Does that mean I can add it to my visited states map?😇

I thought we spoke English here???? My technophobia is why I didn’t buy that new 18 Venture that was on here for 12k a few months ago. This “everything has to be on a computer” thing drives me nuts. I used to be able to walk out of my office, cross the hall, stick my head in the chief’s office, and say one of the fire trucks is broke down. 15 seconds flat. Now I have to access the correct forms, fill em out, email em to him, CC in other captains, Bcc in the mechanic so the chief can call me across the hall to ask if it’s broke. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Keep in mind you can find running/riding 99s in the 2500 range.

Thanks Don I’m back on track now!!!!!!

AAAHHHH, now y’all went and done it. Boss mans been puttin in some serious overtime without extra pay and while us Americans been saying thank you you had to go and poke fun at his motorcycle. You just thought the exchange rate was what cost you Canadians extra to be here.

With the current political climate this needed bumped to the top.

Thanks Don. It’s amazing how one site being down screws up my day 😜. See guys I knew he didn’t run off on that HD and forget us.

If it smells of gas I’d be looking at the carb floats quickly. Stuck floats is the biggest killer of these engines. Any gas drips on the floor? I’ve never been uncomfortably hot on my 07, I’d definitely check the T-stat and coolant. If it had a center stand it was aftermarket, RSVs didn’t come with one.

WHERE OH WHERE are you tonight?

Be careful what you say if you do to the doc. I have a 5ft spring steel pry bar I was using overhead when it slipped and popped my melon bad enough to stitch. When I told them it was a pry bar it was an automatic assumption somebody assaulted me. I finally talked them out of calling the police but it wasn’t easy. I did admit there are probably people out there who’d love to crack my head but I did that one myself. Second warning: if they want to put staples in your head make sure the nurse doing it is strong enough to squeeze the stapler without using your skull for leverage. She hurt me worse than the pry bar. Good luck with the headache.

I just plugged it in and use it. No extra mods or any problems at all. I made sure all wires are tied up and away from it. I do a lot of night riding and like it.

Ha I’m in KY. I understand the language. Got called out in NY for my accent, told em I didn’t have one they did.

Gonna do my best to make this one. We’ve been to Don’s and WNY a couple times each but haven’t been able to catch one down south.

We get a little, I was just yanking Joe’s chain. There’s a month or two we get cold enough to park em. It’s usually not over a couple weeks at a time.

Riding season??? We have deer season, turkey season, etc around here. Rest of the time we’re riding. :stickpoke::stickpoke::witch_brew:

I hate seeing this. I too never met Dale but admired his knowledge and creativity. After reading his obit it hit me that his inventions keep my crew safer ever time we crawl into our fire engines. RIP Zag.
