1st actual road ride for Goldie today. She ran like a champ, after the ride I leaned out the idle circuit a bit. Another test tomorrow and a carb sync and plug change if I like it. She runs extra hard and will eat my CBF1000 easily. After all these decades I still love the ride of these bikes better than anything else. This is just a vew blocks from my house, I put over 100km on today, fresh build but she loved the exercise.. goldie 1st ride.jpgLast edited by Big Block; 05-14-2024, 07:46 PM.1986 1150EF

Took the Sportster to work yesterday, and will again today. Probably going to sell the Sporty and buy an older (Evo) Road King later this year so that that 65 mile one way is more enjoyable (and to enjoy some longer road trips to other states)."Thought he, it is a wicked world in all meridians; I'll die a pagan."

Mine's a very modified 2016. The fuel injection is definitely nice, and it makes a very good deal of power. Definitely not a garden variety Sporty, I probably have $12,000 in it between purchase and mods; but I'm ready to get a better long haul Harley. I've ridden quite a few 400+ mile days on it. There is something special about them, and I will probably always have one of one sort or another."Thought he, it is a wicked world in all meridians; I'll die a pagan."

Not today, but yesterday! Took a little 110 mile trip up to the Kentucky river lock #3. (Got to ride KY 421 and 22 which are two EXCELLENT roads!)

When I die, just cremate me and put me in my GS tank. That way I can go through these carbs, one more time!https://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/core/images/smilies/cool.png
