Pahana

Dear SDAR, Well how time flies...Amazingly its been 6 years since I last rode here: - Short story is in 2016 I had to go work overseas so I ran the Engine out of all fuel, filled engine up with oil, removed battery etc - all long term storage stuff... then we all know what happened - I'm British - so could not get back for a while... In general I am very happy with the condition on my return. Well finally I'm back - got a new battery, got the oil level corrected, She turns over great, instruments all good etc. sounds right, but not firing - not totally surprised but I will say my FXSTB fired right up! So I know there are going to be some gurus who can give me a path to follow so I can get her running - go get smogged, get the PNO removed and ready to Ride! So I am guessing its gummed up fuel in the system somewhere - anyone's ideas would be great as RJ's All American Shop in Ramona seems to have shut as normally I'd just ask him to come pick her up and sort it...Some folk tell me he moved to Poway? Thanks for any pointers... Best from Boony

Gents, I'd love to do this route...may or june...let me know if it suits. Actually looking to get a team together for the Continental Divide...but having done half of it before this looks a great option Kris

After some dumpster diving..ok recycle blue bin snorkelling....the Rum is called CAPTAIN MORGAN Private Stock Premium Barrel... Yaaaaargh! shiver me rowlocks and splice the main brace you scurvy dogs! Saw Wayne at motoport and got the kevlar breeches to go over the boots, a radio pouch and a water carrier / kidney belt added to the gear.. Great service as usual...what radio system is advised guys? Also fyi got a "POD X1" worlds smallest motorcycle " biker appoved" jumpstarter from the cycle store at montiel road san marcos...size if my 5s iphone in lifeproof box half price (80 Bucks) ...the clips are bigger than the battery!! With all the charging gizmos for iphones laptops etc.. But was mighty dissapointed no baja-tire-changing-ratchet-wotsit! [cw built in stop watch and mickey-taker]

Heys Guys! What a blast... Thanks to all for making it such a fun " two days in Mexico!" Reviewed go pro...lots of smiles.... May be some good stuff there... More to follow So a huge thanks to Arnie for great organisation, (sorry to hear of the family issues...Trust all ok now?), TWG for helping me pick bike up..(.all excess weight will be PURGED! ) and everyone for a great team ride..was a fun group...and I learnt a LOT! Morroco! Yes let's put that on the bucket list but trust me... You guys have the best riding here in North America, no question. If you are in Europe.. Make sure to contact me.. Kris

Hi Guys! Boony the Brit here...just to say Really looking forward to the ride! but first all y'all have a GREAT Thanksgiving ..see you all on Friday ! Also thanks to Arnie for Arranging this.. And the Ride out to the WARPED. Weekend run.. It was a hoot PAHANA..." We must find a way... Or make one" (Hannibal)

Very good of you - but I am GUTTED I missed out on a tour...I was in Escondido test riding a Harley Sporty for a very good friend of mine - a present for his wife - I borrowed my sister's harley (night train FXSTC) I was in SUCH a rush to change form Harley leathers to mesh jacket I put my clothes on back to front inside out under my mesh jacket.. Randy laughed as I had to change it at cruise night! OK - let's ride another tim - and let us meet at a fuel station / cafe...no mistakes there Kind regards to all, Kris

Well - what a mess! All of my own making - my apologies to all who were put out: I raced to get there - arrived about an hour late - asked around, refuelled and din't find Ben - SO went on to El Cajon and saw Randy...got home and got my A$$ reamed by my sister - I must call in future. So Apologies all round Kris

on my way - may be 15 mins late Kris
