but Bonzo is in Orange County Gman and I are both in Westchester
where exactly are you?
I do believe that some of the CT vrcc, which has a real active board have adjusted their valves You can check out their local board All of em are great folks
Is the bike running badly or are you just thinking it should be done because of the miles on your bike?

How many miles on the bike? How many miles when you bought it? It's really quite easy to do yourself. http://www.valkyrieriders.com/shoptalk/carlvalve.htm After reading these instructions a couple of times ask questions. It's really quite easy to do yourself. |

rides on friday saturday and sunday
friday is the hudson valley. Perkins Drive, Harriman State Park, overlooks over the Hudson north of West Point and from Cold Spring NY, Fahnstock State Park, Route 301, the goat trail to Bear Mtn Bridge Croton Dam There will be at least 1 awesome ice cream stop.
Saturday will be a ride up to Bonzo's country and route will be depending on whether the 106 bridge is open yet and whether various other roads are repaired and finished Definitely on the list is Hawks Nest, some local wineries, the catskill reservoir country which is really nice
Sunday is the ride down the east shore of the Hudson to NYC where we will park at 42nd street pier and take the circle line past the Statue of Liberty, under the Brooklyn Bridge and return to tour the aircraft carrier Intrepid You can see a SR71 Blackbird (never shot down) a Concorde and lots of other great planes on the deck/ There is also a couple of other warships there.
Monday depending on who has to go home I may have a smaller ride and depending on the weather I may do the saturday ride on sunday

OCC has really turned into a boring TV show. It just goes to prove to you that you can only do so much with a V-twin.
