+1 on Hwy 30. You can pay a toll if you're so inclined, or get off on Monsigneur Langlois, quick zip through Valleyfield (watch for cops as you roll through town, speed traps are common), over the Mgr Langlois bridge and connect to the 401 toward Cornwall. Go north from Cornwall toward Ottawa...

Well done! Griff

I'm annoyed at Harley for the opportunity they missed... They had maybe the best v-twin power plant ever put in a bike, and designed by Porsche to boot... They had Eric Buell who knows a thing or three about building a fast bike that handles... They owned MV Augusta ferchrissakes... who also...

14-16 Aug works for me (falls into that "week of 10 Aug" thing I posted earlier. I have an email in to the GM of the Holiday Inn in Deer Lake, looking for info on getting a reserved block and a preferred rate. I'll let you know what I come up with. To quote the great Hannibal Smith: "I love...

What's to plan? (see above...) ;) Griff

Can't help you with the clutch Steve (I have one of them gay AE models) but I'll dig up the stem nut and sent it your way... PM me an address. Griff

So to recap... 1. Sometime around the second week of Aug (week of the 10th?) 2. Somewhere on the west side of da Rock (Deer Lake/Stephenville/Cornerbrook (ish)) 3. Mem will be in charge of screeching 4. Show up and ride.... ... did I miss anything? Griff

Looking forward to the TR Scottie... Notes for the Disorganizing Committee: 1) Pick a date (later than our usual late June CFR date... late July seems to be good weather-wise) 2) Pick a spot (Deer Lake seems a good bet...) 3) Pick a hotel (there's a Holiday Inn Express in Deer Lake) 4) Post...

@Harnic: We'll have no-meat nachos on to go with the beer Griff

Since Lucie and I are going to be at the campsite on Thursday, we'll be laying on a pot of venison chili for everyone rolling in on Friday... just need to know how many to expect. If you can post up, or IM me or whatever so I can make sure I've got enough, I'd be much obliged. Cheers, Griff

Thanks Bounce... was gonna ask you to merge them, since we had two independent threads in two separate forum areas. Griff

Looks like we were both typing at the same time...

Just got an email from Cindy (wife of Candian forum member Shakin (Ian)... he's wrecked on Saturday, driver pulled a U-turn directly into his path (other driver's been charged). According to Cindy, he'll be ok, fractured wrist, dislocated knee (ouch!), busted shoulder, a few cracked ribs and...

I think (can't confirm, I'm still out on the road coming home from CFR) that FJRGuy will have a bunch of tickets available at the campground. If not they are available at the door... so either way, no worries. See you there! Griff

Hamic... I have 3 adjacent campsites reserved at the Kootenay Chalets campground (right across the road from the KGB site). More than enough room for your tent. Griff

FredW and Huron52 (as usual) are making tons of sense... (holy **** I never thought I'd say that...) Late July/early Aug should be possible for CFR2014... now all we need is a RallyBastard who's reasonably local... Any takers? Griff

Still down in Ingersoll visiting family. Expect to start the run west early next week... reckon I'll be the last one checked in (again). Griff

Ok, update. Brought the bike to Inglis in London they cleared space to get me in right away and get this sorted out. Kudos to Gird Inglis the owner! The tech worked through the usual causes of the code 12 (not Sh-12, to answer a question in a previous post) and also tested peak signal voltages...

So if I have FJRGuy's red key, I can maybe make this work? Hmmmm Might not be dead in the water yet, if FedEx can come through,,,

Ok. Original ECU is back in, bike is buttoned up, hauling to the dealer in London in the morning. Really curious what is causing the code 12. Guess I'll finish the ride to CFR in a rental car... Griff
