All loaded, took the bike out for a ride last night. Good top end, still hesitates on acceleration, but maybe I am thinking it should run like the Guzzi. Heading out in just a bit. See you either Tuesday night or Wednesday. Anybody riding out on Wednesday - I'd like to do a couple of shorter runs just to be sure she's ok...

So now I'm riding the bike around Wichita Falls while the climate control is getting checked out on the Ford. No AC is not a good thing for a northerner. But the bike is running great. I did bounce a mount off the slip streamer. Might be a hard find.

We have more photos to post, but we want to thank our host & guide Al Mays.

are with this being the Formula 1 weekend. He showed us everything and took us on an
amazing lap around the track. Here's to you Al anim-cheers1 thanks action1 action1 action1
