65 deg. here yesterday.25 deg. blowing and drifting snow today so I've been on Google maps planning my 6400 mi. 23 state trip out to NH down the east coast to Virginia up to the Michigan UP across to Billings Mt. and home.67 days 9 hrs. 48 min. and counting.

 

Rode 90 miles, let the AT work at WOT and added 93 octane to the tank for the warm weather this week.

 

Ran a tank of gas through it and about 170 miles. Helped a buddy of put new exhaust on his bike.

 

Rode 180 miles round trip to get an ice cream cone....but it was Butter Pecan soft serve so 'nuff said....rode in 40 mph wind gusts as well and was impressed by how steady the glide was, if only my jacket didn't act like a sail when the wind got in it and tried to blow me off the bike

 

I left Bridgeville, Pa and rode to Columbia, SC in route to Eustis, FL. A little over 500 miles. Kind of cold for the first 200 miles but then it was awsome! Tomorrow I'll need to pick up some sun screen.

 

Went out to the trailer and unlocked it for the first time after a long and cold winter, and sure enough, it was still there.

 

Put bugs all over the windshield.

 

not riding weather yet, so got bored and cut the neck off my SG


then welded it back on @ +9 degrees


and a skim coat.. paint to follow shortly.

 

i went out to my shop, dusted off my bike, pushed in the compression releases and started the motor. it didn't get shut off till i found a great coffee shop 70 miles from home. that's what i did to my bagger today. ain't life sweet when the weather doesn't suck?

 

Put on the chrome Streamliner passenger boards. Ridiculous price, but they really look good with the matching rider boards.
