    Things are looking more positive that I will make it out to Tolar.
    I would love sliders before I go but I have another purchase in mind before I get sliders.

    Yea as far as I know they are still open. How did you like the way they handled when you tested one and what one did you test?

    I was with my Father-in-law while he was shopping. I rode my Harley up there and they kinda gave me flak for finaly "upgrading" and I took the ribbing until I rode their 8 Ball. It was fast and agile, but rode rough as a farm tractor. The power was fun, but I would of never rode it more than out of town. Then I rode their Kingpin (I think). It was also a fun bike to ride, but the suspension seemed to be over tuned and the seat completly sucked.

    I told the salesman this and he said that some of the componets were not stock and that a stock bike would handle a little different. I asked him why he didn't have stock bikes for us to test ride and he couldn't give us a good answer. Comparing those Victorys to my '97 Fat Boy; I was happy to get back on my bike and GTFO of there. My Father-in-Law then went and test rode some more bikes; but I quit going with him. That was enough of an experience to let me know I was good where I am.

    He has since sold his bike, had another for a little while and sold it too. I still have my bike. :D

    It cranked and idles (like complete shit) but revs with you give it gas. Right now it has now power under load so we'll have to see what is going on. Always something...

    And yeah, I'll wheel without 1st gear. I should have my throttle cable on by then, so that should make things a bit easier.

    Hey Zech, do you have 22re or 22r? If it's the re maybe you have a vacuum leak? I know it's probably been looked at but what about your spark plug wires, are they all plugged in and in good shape?
    We unplugged a spark plug wire on this guys truck in high school and it ran like garbage. It was funny since he had no idea and was always bragging how his beat up old chevy farm truck was really a race truck that was "waiting on body work".
