Doctors want me in hospital Monday morning...
Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend. My body is slowly giving out and repairs needed are extensive. It is too far and to soon for me to get there.
Have fun, but behave and watch those narrow tunnels.

BAD News. You are at a great hospital and the wonders of modern medicne will get you going again soon.
Look at all the "repair" work done on me.
Many some problems at airport security, but small price.
Try to be good in the hospital.

I use a Kahr CW-9. Long trigger pull, but very reliable. Over 10,000 rounds to date, still runs with no problems. Strong spring make disassembly a bit of work. Accurate to 10 meters.

Made Reservation today at the Travelers Inn, I still do not plan to climb Mt Rushmore.
Looking to return to the Black Hills once more. Great area to ride.

Just a thought if Kanab doesn't work out. I have stayed at the Best Western in Mt Carmel Junction. Remember it as LARGE with an "annex" by the golf course. Lots of area for a group to gather and ? Large dinning area and something called a bar.

Uh KJ, Bruce aka Longrider is old enough that he fought in the US Calvary against Crazy Horse. He'll just show them his saber, they will let Corporal Waldon in for free! jes' sayin' and nuff said, Charge!
Not quite that old, but I have stood on top of George Washington's head at Mt Rushmore...
Good, after the right turn watch your speed. The Dep. is usually hidden somewhere along the road and many have help support the County.

Looking ahead I hope to be back in the saddle for this. Mark me as tentative. If a climb to the top of Mt Rushmore is in the offering, I will have to pass. Been there and done that.

I use Powerlet glove liners that plug into the Powerlrt jacket liner on my chopper and just the liner alone on the FJR. Can use one size up regular leather gloves with the heated liners. Has worked well down to 38 degrees here in California.
Another benefit is rain gloves, really BIG...
I ordered a Mag Knight, but it doesn't fit the 2014 Gas Tank. Cutout for the gas fill was slightly to small and whole thing was to wide to fit the raised portion and too narrow to go over the raised edges of the tank.
My 2004 averaged 46.8 MPG over 82,000 miles. Worst was 37.5 on one day of over 85 MPH most of day. Best was 55.2 MPH just dinking along on the ALCAN.
For the first 2000 miles on my 2014 ES the average is 51.3 MPG.

I told my dealer, Wilson's Motorcycles in Fresno, CA I wanted an 2014 ES and he had one in two days for me to look at.
Liked what I saw and bought it.

Want to put an outlet in the rear of my 2014 FJR ES. The 2014 kit Powerlet sells will not fit in the space due to the ES shocks.
Has anyone mounted a Powerlet outlet in the Left rear??
Also looking for ideas about mounting a Shad case on the bike.
Many Thanks,
Bruce
