hey all,

Just what I didnt need a few days before the trip to Mountainfest. Fork seal blew out on one side and other one is seeping pretty good. Now I gotta pull it all apart and fix it when I should be prepping for the road trip. I guess better now than on the road. Always something. Just venting, sorry guys......Anyone else ever have this crap happen to them before a road trip? Seems like this bike is showing its age on a daily basis. Hey ...what weight you guys running up front? Curious. The HD stuff is like water. Botz

Hey Botz

Good to see ya bud, you don't seem check in as often as you used to..
Get that bathroom remodeled.?

One of the very few HD products I use is the Extra Heavy fork oil..


Since we ride almost everyday, the rate at which I find things needing maintenace is pretty much equally spread out over time, soo, I find broke stuff as often between trips as not..

Have a good trip..
Raise an adult beverage for me.. Yeah Baby..!!
