        So I pulled the bike off the truck and turn the key an nothing...

        Then I went through the winter storm from Delaware to Virginia...



        So nice to see some new trees.


        Rolled in and it was nice to see the gorgeous weather... 20 hour ride.


        Unloaded the bike and... Dead. The Harley was dead on arrival. No power to the ECU, only some of the lights were working...

        4 hours later after the 20 hour drive:


        Burned out main harness, to popped relays and and an issue with the main switch... Some hot-wiring and switch repair and the bike is running... I'll be going for a good ride. to the Yamaha dealer!
        a Harley breaking down at Daytona...weird. Lol

          Looking at a '18 Z900RS... Might put money down on that after I demo it tomorrow... Harley has been running great today! After my "Jedz" repair. 150 miles this far!

              Why? Japanese bikes aren't 100% bullet proof, either.

                With the 1/4 million miles I've had on bikes I have run into the same amount of problems on my Harleys than with my Japanese machines... I have over 200K miles on my Japanese bikes and about 15K on my Harleys...

                Anyway minus another minor issue (side cover falling off) it was a solid 200 mile day of riding.


                My Host/Guide and his a 2018 Indian Roadmaster with 116 kit... FYI I can't keep up... My bike will only do 125mph in 5th then I hit rev limiter.

                Main Street in Daytona:

                AND... the Street legal FTR 1200 is just hanging out behind the king of flat track the FTR 750... My next bike I'm thinking...

                Man it's a peice but.. It looks soooo good...

                Cabbage Patch...

                AWESOME DAY!!!

                  I fly out tomorrow morning and have 2 baseball games in Leesburg on Saturday. hope to be done between 2-3pm then head over. Is it worth going?

                    Sorry couldn't tell ya. Most swap meets down here are 95% H-D. Hope you can report that's not the case, but I suspect you'll see a lot of H-D parts.

                            Looks like you'll have some nice weather while your down here, but I'm seeing we may have a 50% chance of rain Sunday. Florida is weird when it comes to rain. I can't tell you how many times it's rained in my backyard while not a drop hits the front. Keep me informed on what your plans are for Sunday. Also the choice for dinner is up to you, Italian in Cocoa or seafood in Port Orange. Both places are on the water.

                              Trevor... A Harley NOT breaking down ANYWHERE....weird. Harley isn't the worst but it well behind EVERY Japanese branded cycle.

                              What began as a battle of the motorcycle brands, with a decisive ranking to show who makes the most reliable motorcycle, has resulted in a nationalist showdown.

                              I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

                                Lets do seafood in Port Orange!

                                Rick I'll shoot you a text but I'll likely be avoiding I-4 like the plague, allot of folks are telling me it's a road to avoid on the MC. I'll reach out to my Grands today and see what time they were thinking. Brisk weather down here this week. Fells more like fall riding.
