Well Bob now you spoke too late... My wife and I are heading to Maine for the family vacation during that time. We own a little place on the Little Sabago lake. If there were anyway I would be there

But make sure you have FUN even without me

Steve, Vegas is only a 2 hour drive away and they have a dealer there who rents harleys. Flights to Vegas are cheap and man, it would be cool to meet you.
If not, well we will try to carry on without you but it won't be the same...lol
Take care bro

Retired Army eh? I was drafted but also a combat engineer here, 70-71. Basic, AIT, then the big bivouac(sp.?). Our rear area was Chu Lai and our AO was from Da Nang to Duc Pho, from the beach to Laos... damn near all of I corps.
My MOS was 12B30..demo specialist. Back then, if we extended to within five months of ETS, we got a five month drop. So I had to extend just two months over there and ets'd from nam and did a total of 19 months with full honorable discharge. First day home I bought a sportster and within a week, had it chopped...lol, that was a long time ago...

The only time rooms are not cheap in Laughlin is for the river run. I have been the last 5 years but not sure if I am going to make it this year.

Supply and demand...

Hey Dr., do you discount for a C&C sport tour beyond me dealing directly with them? I'm getting real close on one. You have some really good prices overall on stuff so hence the question. Also, as a distributor, what are you hearing on timeframe and what big items like batwing, tour paks, etc. relating to aftermarket mods for the FLD? Bummer you may not go to the run, your booth was one I was looking forward to visiting.
