It is really great over here. I wish I had more time to explore and user the back roads. We must return tomorrow as fast as possible. If you do around here next year we should plan some rides together. Javier On Jun 21, 2015 11:15 AM, "EGrider" wrote: > After my ride to Seattle, I'll only have N

I thought the PCH was a California thing, but now I realize it goes all the way to Seattle. I could take it down to Portland and then over to Ontario if time permits. Great idea. Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!"

If a chain should be good for 25K, I can relax. Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email to nighthawk_lovers+unsubscr...@googlegroups

So much to see and do out west, it's hard to choose. But since your plan includes all the way to the coast, the Pacific Coast Highway stands out in my mind. Any part (or all of it) would make an awesome ride. Honda is so impressed with it they named a motorcycle after it. On Saturday, June 20

I replace chains when the difference between the tight side and the loose side get too great. But it seems to me it is a fair expectation to get about 25k miles out of a chain. Allen Thomas -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers

In downtown Denver there's a great diner called Sam's No 3 that's worth a visit. Also at the state capital building engraved into one of the steps is a marker letting you know you're exactly 1 mile above sea level. And just north of Denver is the place where they make Celestial Seasonings tea, you

After my ride to Seattle, I'll only have NH, VT, and ME left to complete the 50. Guess where I'll be headed next year at this time? Glad to hear I've got some good riding in my future. Enjoy your trip! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Moto

2015-06-21 Thread EGrider
Those of you who have gone to 16 or 17 teeth on your front sprockets, how do you now determine the status of your chain since the marks behind the axle are no longer relevant? Miles only? I've put 10,000 miles on my chain, and now I'm getting ready for another 6,000 trip. I haven't tightened the

The salt flats are west of Salt Lake City, right on the border of Utah/Nevada. It is only a couple hours out of SLC. If you've never been there I would recommend it. There were some smaller roads the go north from there to connect back (eventually) to Ontario, OR. Those roads are quite desolate

Hi, Graham. Thanks for the link. I've tried David Silver but they can't supply either a new or used exhaust system. So your bike may not have been sold for breaking. Thanks again for the inf anyway. Cheers Neil -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Night
