Well I took her out for a shakedown ride today.

All I can say is WOW what a nice running bike. Smooth shifting and smooth riding. I almost thought about keeping it so I had to go out and ride my bike just to make sure. I'm still love my black interstate and I can't believe how good it runs with a 100,000 more miles then the Green one. I really couldn't tell any difference except for the clutch. The Green one is a little smoother but then again I have 100,000 more miles on my clutch.   Just waiting for the fuel sender now and she's ready to go.

Sounds nice. Good day for a ride.

You know a ride to Tampa & back would be a more thorough shake down ride

But I don't think you would like to ride on the back of me all the way! LOL

Man you got that right! I can't ride b*#ch more than a block. I don't know how they do it, being not in control of the bike is not for me.

Hey Dave, Really like your new bike, esp the bustec trailer. Fukiko and I are really looking forward to seeing you all on your next ride to Arizona. I'll keep looking for updates. Anyone getting down to Yuma let me know. It will be great to see the Valk group again.
