    She laughed and said she can't wait to see you and all the others again (she's a groupie now). I don't think I'm going to be stag riding much anymore, unless its xross Country. Her No.1 will probably always be boating and jetskiing, I'm not complaining however, I likey it all!

    Top Heavy - Relocate Battery?

    I think I'm voting for the Gen3 shock then. Those who mentioned this are not fly-by-nighters. As for the battery re-location? I'd forget that idea. I once had the same idea notion for it going under the seat, for low center of gravity and for convenience/access. It's best just to forget about...

    I was hacking around route-in idea's with Madmudder. We have a few possible choices, and from previous experiences; getting around Pittsburgh and not wanting to take slab... so, basically you have to go far far away from the Pitts. I recall suburbs like Mars, and then Moon! NO, I'm being...

    Sounds like Ray will be the first settler to arrive. (and, there's about 3 Ray's a showing, so pretty good odds). Billy, have fun and since you're bailing on Mikes Tech day as well, see you up at CFR!

    If you stick with this route, a stop just outside of Morristown OH to Food by Jane (you'll run right into it prior to taking a right turn). Awesome chow, mega 5 star reviews, a def must stop eating hole. (Me and Mike the Wine Guy, 2014 SEO)

    Jon- Hope ya can swing it buddy. If not, I'd say leave Friday am, enjoy the ride in. That's usually half the fun. John- We did your exact route 2 years ago. Wasn't bad, around Youngstown is slow. Either way, you wanna avoid Pitts and that always seems to be right in the middle of everything...

    6 gear slipper tranny "2016" in old 5 gears engines?

    The sixth gear is nice on the slab plowing down insects at a very high speed. Other than that, your 5 speed will suffice and has done so for many a years. Don't create a headache that you don't need, just drink more beer! :)
