well, our plan is two years, but if we have another year in the stock market like this one (which it won't) we could shorten it...but we both bought ESPs and leaving them stock so should get many years of continuing to ride the hell out of them

Looking nice you can congratulate Mrs. mjwebb from me. Did you happen to check if the new trike has the breather vent hose for the primary. I think in another thread some were wondering if the 2020's have the vent still. I'm betting it does.

thanks, and yeah it has the vent, the first thing I looked for even though I figured it was just a bogus rumor report from Greg Williams on the M8 FB page, seemingly more feeble attempts to discredit HD in order to sell more of his pushrods as the only real viable solution to fluid transfer
