Very carefully. You can put a liner in line however it is not legal to do so. A 100 watt would get you a long way and I would not want to be riding in a group with you when it was on. They make smaller ones but I would try new antennas or at least get your SWR set before I got an amp.
I did not think it was too bad at night but you will see lot's of shiny eyes that could run out in front of you. If you are not use to riding those kind of roads at night I would not recommend it.

Stumbled upon this article this morning and thought I would share.

It was a pleasure meeting y'all face to face even if you did put the Trike notion in Bobbi's head. Have a safe trip and we may take you up on your offer one day.
The races and bearings look good so I guess tomorrow I will throw everything back together. My biggest concern was the side to side sway in the swing arm.
