Re: 1600 DP Top End

I upgraded to the topline 88 slip in and heads. Excellent quality and fit! When I measured the cc's for setting deck height and compression ratio, the heads were all the same cc. Gave me a final ratio of 8.5:1. The power is nice and smooth and pulls hills with no problem. Worth the upgrade!

Re: Interesting findings on CHT

I have been running WR8AC Bosch since the upgrades to Kermit and have found my temps higher that's what I expected. I changed to B6HS NGK plugs tonight and after a ride, noticed better oil temps and smoother running. Tomorrow, we will run when it's warmer and see if the trend holds. Thanks for the h...

Joe, you need to add the Raspberry T to that list. I have a feeling that Rick will have it rolling by MOTB at the blistering pace he's setting! :-)

Re: 'Hypothetical' id tag question.

I would call Winnie first and tell her the situation. I have a feeling that they may reissue a tag with your original number, but it may not be free.

Barb and I are in! If there are members that would like to join us from St Louis, we will be going on Saturday morning. Joe's is about halfway for us, so if you roll out from the Lou with us, you will be right at 1000 miles when you reach the beach! Just like Joe said, check your buggy out and make ...

Re: 2015 - ECVW 2015 - It's on!

Thanks for the updates and pictures! I'm glad the weather was better this year when you all crossed the great divide than last year. Prayers for Kathleen and Tom's family and also for Joe. Shingles is no fun, but hang in there, buddy!

Making great time and the pics are wonderful (as usual).

I have been asked by a few if there is anything that the S2B crew needs when they arrive in St Louis tomorrow?

Re: Shuffle to Buffalo 2015

Craig, look forward to riding with ya!

Joe, bummer on the engine and not making MOTF. But, it wouldn't be an ECVW trip for you if it wasn't crunch time! :-) Still, we look forward to seeing you in Columbus!

Try and keep a log of diagrams for your fuse block and connections. They come in really handy when there are issues on the road. I keep a small wire bound pocket notebook with my registration and insurance.
