  • I imagine this is what we can expect: Rally Rides July 13 & 14 & 15

    Bonz ready to lead the Day Ride (when everybody finally realizes it is time to ROLL)
    Maybe we need to try some new "Ready to Go Now" signals since leader on bike with motor revving
    and blowing the horn doesn't seem to get desired results



    Along with everyone else, looking forward to it. Only 134 days to go!
    So Book em' Danno (er, Greg).

      Looks like a typical XSive gathering We have all been guilty of not being ready when it is time to go

                • I don't know, I will ask him. I don't really want to trailer again, so I imagine he won't come.

                    • Very good!

                      How’s the lightweight battery working?

                      Put mine in late spring last year, love it, 280 CCA based on however they rate those lithium units.

                      Fired the ZRX 1200 up after a few cranks on a below freezing Saturday morning, as I wanted to test how cold sensitive the lithium batteries were. In this case, a sub 2 lb battery spun and fired a crankcase of 15w40 with full choke in normal time.

                        I don't want to trailer either. Too much work, too expensive, and to damn boring.

                        You DO NOT get to sleep in front of the AC. They completely remodeled that place in Minnesota after 2 visits from you.
