Well folks the time is here, my first MC trip on my America! In the last week I have purchased a new rear tire, heated grips, 18 tooth sprocket, headlight and brakes. I also adjusted my windshield for a little better protection and added some new alpine star boots to my gear.
I will be heading to Knoxville to meet my best friend and try to ride the skyway and the dragon. Then it will be off to Atlanta on Saturday in the cage for the international MC show and the super motocross Saturday night. Sunday I will be heading home via the Blue Ridge parkway.
I have changed my oil, added the heated grips and brakes all by myself. I have restored cars, raced R/Cs and even machined and engine or two so doing my own wrenching is not a big deal to me. But working on this bike has been a real pleasure and very easy to do. The only head ache I have had so far is I had a stripped allen head on one of my bar ends. It was some work but not that bad.
I would like to thank all the members here, this is a great resource. I did have a couple of questions and I found all the answers here using the search function.
I purchased most everything from New Bonneville and it has been a real pleasure! I will be ordering a few more things from them.
My only concern is the rain forecasted on Sunday. I don’t care to ride in the rain, matter a fact my entire MSF course was in the rain. But I am a little worried about the America, I hope that things doesn’t quit on me. Dean
