Update on my bike. The CDI box crapped out and I'm waiting on a new one. The vendor said the part was shipped today and that I should receive it by the end of the week. So, fingers crossed that I'll be able to make the rally. I maybe a day late getting there. We'll see.

Hope you get it in time and can make the rally.
Got a phone call from my oldest son this morning. The restaurant he works at burned to the ground last night...and the hits just keep on coming.

Thanks Ron. Sorry to hear about the son. It seems that WE can't catch a break....LOL. The good news is that I'm putting the bike back together today. I just finished cleaning up some loose wiring as well as putting the spot lights on a separate circuit. Fingers crossed that she fires up.

Thanks Mike. We really wish were coming. Tammy didn't get to go to the national last year. We were both looking forward to this year's rally.

Great news, bike is running. looks like I'll be on the road Monday morning. I've got some things to finish around the house and at my parents place before I leave. I was hoping to leave out Saturday, but my dad needs some assistance this weekend. Looking forward to meeting everyone. Ride Safe all.

Looks like Sun is going to be a wash out 80% chance of thunder storms. Anyone from around Elkins who knows what the weather is supposed to be next week. Sure don't like the look of how this is starting off from here.
