whatever you do don't ride down...it took me 12 hours to get back from Ocean City, MD two years ago on Memorial Day. I-95 northbound was a parking lot the entire way.

I'm in NYC...would be in if the timing is right.

this is one shenanigan that I must say is pretty cool although I'm sure I'd be pissed if I was stuck in the middle of these guys trying to get to work.

lol...i just logged on to post this. you beat me to it, and yes, it is funny.

For sale: Custom electric motorcycle low miles: 50 feet to be exact lotssss of torque no trottle, just on or off *minor front end damage need to sell asap. Hospital bills piling up fast.

:rulez: pics needed

wecome back from that hell hole! thanks for keeping us safe.

it would suck to be an ER doctor working that day

Thanks man. It's been a major pain in the arse. I definitely considered getting rid of it, but I really enjoy this bike when it's healthy. Hopefully, the curse has been lifted.

If it were me, I would change all the fluids: brake fluid, oil, and new coolant if my bike had been sitting for two years. Also, if there is gas in the tank I would dump it or siphon it out and put fresh gas in and maybe run a little injector cleaner (from autozone) in the first couple tanks...

On another positive note, I was down in Roanoke VA over the weekend and rented a 2011 HD Street Glide 103. I rode the Blue Ridge Pkwy on Saturday and Sunday. It was a great ride. The weather was really nice on Saturday and it is just switchback turn after turn. The HD was surprisingly nimble...

So I'm glad to report that two weeks ago (Saturday September 8th), John reassembled and installed the original motor back in my bike. After spending the day at John's place in NH, I took an extremely wet and windy ride back to NYC and the bike ran great although it was a pretty miserable ride...

I'll post on an update on my thread.

:laugh:

yeah i hear you. i do basic maintenance myself...oil/filter changes, brake pads, rotors, plugs, stuff that unbolts easily. but i definitely do not feel comfortable or anywhere near qualified to open up a motor. i wish i was believe me.
