    hi all while we were at the hub last month. found this guide at the hub put out by the harrison convention & vistors bureau. you can download it www.MotorcycleArkansas.com. it has 7 different rides in & around the harrison,ark area. 1. the ozarkmoonshine run 110 miles with 662 curves about 3 hrs & 45 minutes. 2. bull shoals dam route 100 miles with 326 curves about 3 hours. 3. peel's ferry 110 miles with 378 curves about 3 hours & 30 minutes. 4. mountain view run 168 miles with 602 curves about 4 hours & 30 minutes. 5. jasper disaster 56 miles with 316 curves about 2 hours 6. eureka springs backroads route 132 miles with 571 curves about 4hours & 50 minutes. 7. push mountain 146 miles and 342 curves dosn't say how long a ride but i would say aleast 3-4 hours. all of these routs have gas stops stated for each ride. i see the eureka springs backroad route goes thru huntsville, ark so i will ride that route one day. ( i was born in huntsville, texas ) and am trying to go thru every huntsville in the united states. sorry i have not posted anyting about this guide,i had it mixed up with other state maps. if you do not want to download it you can request it to be mailed to you. but ya better hurry time is running out. best reguards don c.

    hi ed it's kinda like sleeperhawk said. when i changed out my filter i had the seat off, and all 3 covers. i did not loosen the fuel pump or remove the battery. it is a tight fit the fuel filter sets in a rubber o-ring /groment. i belive i pulled the filter stright up to remove it from the rubber o-ring /groment. but i took the hose clamps off both ends of the filter. when i replaced the filter i used a 1/4" brass nipple extension, a couple of inches long ( i could be wrong on the fuel line size). this brass nipple is what sets down into the o-ring /groment holder to relocate the filter up higher towards the seat. i did not replace the filter into the rubber o-ring /groment. now i can replace the filter with out goimg thru all that monkyee motion. don c.

    i myself just opened up the drain plug on the radiator. then used a wet/dry vacume to suck out the coolent in the reserve tank. i also removed the gas tank to unscrew the cap on the radiator to refill. put everting back together, started up the bike to heat the fuild up. took off the rt. side cover to check the fuild level after a couple of days. don c.
