Sure looks fun. Since I got back from Luchkenbach I've been riding the Guzzi. The 78 is still awaiting its autopsy. But there is a 76 motor almost ready to go into the altered 79 frame, freeing up the 79 motor to be freshened up to go into the 78. I might make it...
Goldwings don't accelerate, they gain inertia.

1978 GL1000 - almost stock - needs a head replaced, parts are ready to install!
1979 GL1000 - Winter project/parts bike - custom "Busted"
1983 GL1100 Standard- raised from the dead and back to organ donor status :cry:
And the newest acquisition, 1979 XS 650F to be a sidecar tug. crossy.gif

I recall a hair pin in the grand canyon of the Ozarks.... could check out the tread on my rear tire as I went around the turn

Everything is on. You can make your motel reservation if you want and if I get a better deal you can change it.

Hi everyone,
So far I have these people interested. I am going to contact the hotel soon, so let me know if you want a two bed room and who you are sharing with or if you want a single, and I will try to reserve enough. Also, do you want a T-shirt and what size?
Still working on the design, but it will be awesome. :orange

I would guess that Rat and I would share a room, two beds, and I would like a shirt. 2x. Haven't talked to Rat, so this might change

Google maps says 318 miles one way for me. Good one day leisurely ride through some of the most beautiful parts of the U.S.

Spent the afternoon in Eureka Springs a few years ago. What an interesting place.
