...resulting in the 2000 mile "Usage" at the top.

Gold medal for obfuscating the mileage.

On the plus side, the number of women spreading their arms...and legs...in order to be in 4 states at once was...entertaining.

Four Corners can't hold a candle to Monument Valley!

No OTR truck drivers in this bunch.....

They were just mowed.

Hi Andy...I'll take 'em. PMing you....

Enjoyed the "string" and memories brought back. As luck would have it, I'm wearing a T-shirt from "Frank's Place Bar/The World's Farthest North Biker Bar" acquired in Fairbanks in 1992. Rode an '88 Softail (fuel capacity: 4 gal.) from Tucson via a HOG rally in Reno up the Alcan...which also happened to be its 50th construction anniversary. The HD dealer at the time was located in IIRC a log cabin looking building...and was even back then fighting HD's corporate push to standardize dealer's "look". (A battle I see they lost googling the current Fairbanks dealer.) Anyway, the then owner had spent time in SE AZ...so we spent some time shooting the breeze...I recall sitting in a barber shop chair with some of the help wondering if we had seen the same whores given our animated conversation. He poo-pooed returning on the Alcan...and said a return via the Cassiar would be less...well...pedestrian. Challenge accepted. Still have my copy of The Milepost from back then. And still have the '88 HD. Oh...now with a 5 gal. tank.

Throttle cable/linkage interference caused my high idle problem....

I have the previous iteration of the Speedhut speedometer. Lamp/needle lighting are on switched power, the GPS is hard wired to the battery. I measured a 100mA with the ignition switch off. Luckily, I can easily disconnect the speedo from the battery..as long as I remember to do so!

First one was this (representative pic, didn't own a Polaroid back then....).

Was waxing the V11 the other day and discovered the guts of my RH front turn signal wanted to come out with the lens loose and not wanting to snap back in place. The signal's front had all my attention. Ordered a replacement. Buffing it out today, I noticed a screw on the back side of the turn signal. Tightened it up....all is well. Guess I need a time out before replacing the cam belts on the Ducati....
