If it would happen, Mrs C would be the proud owner of the ATV of her choosing. She wants one, but I'm not willing to buy a trailer just to haul an ATV someplace just to ride it.

That's more mileage than my bike has seen in two years. That'll change next year.

wheel weights are over rated.
I'm happy to see this thread which was started back in 2012. I don't feel so bad about how long it's taking me to get my cafe project done. |

80 miles today.
I’d almost forgotten what 75 mph felt like. And I remembered to put my foot down at stop signs.

It still lives.
Rode to the local Ural, Benelli, SSR, Royal Enfield, Zero, and God knows what else dealer today for Benelli, RE, and Zero Demo Day. Rode an RE Interceptor 650 with S&S cans it. Sounded great. Very smooth ride if a bit cramped. Has Oomph. At the end of the day, though, I'll keep the Maggot.

Finally found a home for the Maggots' Finnish built CDI box that was replaced by the Aussie built Hall Effect ignition system. Funny thing is it is going to Sweden, next door to Finland.
