The one that starts out looking like a grub worm with a turtle neck sweater on???

 

And with gentle coaxing, looks like a python.....

 

Rodney, what's the latest? Haven't seen an update since the ride. I did see on the news a couple of days ago where some bad weather (tornado) hit in MA somewhere though. Hope it wasn't near you guys.

 

Hey bud, ride was nice. Perfect day albeit a touch windy. Got down to 64 on the way out and I was in a T and shorts. Burr... Didn't know anything about the tornado until you just posted. I had to Google it to find the story. No where near me though as it was in Concord MA in the other end of the state near Boston.

 

Glad the ride was nice. Been there - done that with the wrong clothes for a ride before.
Nice to know the tornado wasn't anywhere near you.

 

Rodney, is there a place to stash a windbreaker ??

 

Yeah, I have saddlebags and have my rain gear in there. The jacket from the rain gear helped on the ride home....

 

Gotcha ! I din't look at the pic close enough to notice bags.
Kinda like a GT SE sled, then !

 

Pretty much. They are about the same size as my Road King saddlebags were. Plus the whole nose has a "frunk" so lots of storage there too...

 

Afternoon Rodney, Might what to reconsider the Road King. Harley came out with a new engine for the new model year, called Milwaukee-Eight. Single cam ,eight valves, Looks pretty sweet!

 

Pretty sure his response is going to be something along the lines of been there, done that.

 

That's about the size of it Andre...

It is a nice motor Darrell, but I'm done with 2 wheels. Toyhauler loading and tying down, the occasional dirt road, and my good old hip that likes to lock up occasionally and scare the bejesus out of me while on a bike...

 

I get it Rodney, I'm just eat up with it. I've been on two wheels for at least forty years. I'm still on dirt and rode. I've been meaning to go see a doctor.
My gate valve is leaking on my black tank. How are those powered valves holding up?

 

Powered valves started off leaking worse than the cable knife ones they replaced. After a couple of trips they hold 100%. I'm wondering if some debris or excess PVC glue got into the gaskets and then popped off after some use. Anyways, as of now, I'm very happy with them.

 

That's a nice report. Glad to hear those started to show improvement.
