2010 Key West

[jetmechmarty]

I can't make it happen either. I hope it will work out next year.

[exquized1]

I got my lay-off slip today! Although I'd have plenty of time money will be short. I'm going to start saving maybe next year will be a go.

[STEPPENWOLF]

Brent..do you guys have specific routes planned or motels? The dates are fine but if I make it I need to stop in Jupiter and Boca Raton either going to or coming from and then I will be in a four wheeler.

Hello fellows XS'ers.

Jonathan here. I did this a couple of years back and had a blast. If I can get the bike running well, I will meet you down in Florida City.

Pulled the carbs today so I can resolve the overflow back into the air box as well as the number 3 cylinder not getting hot a low rpms. If I can rebuild or whatever else needs to be done by then, I should see you guys then.
