    I was going to get there late Friday but I’ll speed in up if you get the Dyno tests. I’ll do the $25 (normally wouldn’t run my XS up to red line that far from home but I’m sure John can help me fix anything I break). I’ll even pay to have Brent’s Harley tested (I need to have something I can beat).

    Bob

    PS: I must be getting old, I feel like I'm repeating myself?

        Hmmm... For some reason... that seems to be when I redline the most. But in all fairness... it's all Hippy Dave's fault!

            I had planned the go the M.O.M. rally since I read about it, even took time off for it. But, now I hafta drive 2400 miles to see where FJR money is going!!!

            I am sure 'yall can figure out who to fight with. Jest start a conversation about oil, or tires. Or tell WC her FJ can't even pull the driveway without slipping the clutch. Maybe do a burnout contest and fight with John's neighbors.

              My FJ can't even pull OUT of the driveway right now...


              but it'll get there... just one more part... I hope...


              Okay... Dynos will be Friday... $25 for 2 runs per bike...
              He said we can just show up... so I'm thinking late morning or early Friday afternoon maybe? It's in Plano (the other side of Dallas from us) and Dallas rush hour is NO fun...
              Hopefully, that will work for you Bob?

              Good Heavens Mark! We only have one work day...

              Just kidding...

              Are you coming in on Thursday? If we're going to get to Plano for the dynos on Friday... we'll need to get yours apart and back together in time... and even with Gurus (John, Tod, HobbyMan, etc)... you still need time...

              Seems to me we were quite late for a car show once before because there was an engine still in pieces... Whose was that?

                Same one it ALWAYS seems to be!!!


                Thanks for rubbing salt in the wounds though... It's supposed to help fight the infection. *Kick

                Let's not point fingers though young lady. Let's just say that it's a good thing we don't hold FJ rallies at your place. Who's would it always be then?!? Hmmm??

                  In all fairness to my beloved...

                  but stupid *@^^ FJ... it's been rather neglected since I have become so XSive with the XS... Maybe if we held FJ rallies here... it could be the first one fixed and once again... the fastest on the road...
                  I DO miss the speed... especially when I get around certain people...

                            This is what it looks like. The previous owner chopped it, now I have to figure out how to mount the seat!
