Thanks Evans, our room is paid for starting tomorrow night. I called them to let them know I may arrive late, and was told my name will be on the door and the room will be unlocked. If Buddy gets there first, he can go to the office and check in. As I remember, he got there before I did last year and did that. Buddy: They have my credit card information, so if they ask, just tell them I'll check in ASAP after I get there.

It rained here today and is supposed to rain for the next few days. I didn't get my grass cut and I'm afraid it's going to look like 1313 Mockingbird Lane when I get back. :)

Well...
Got the grass cut, got the H1 back together, took it for a short run,
Runs great but possible shifter problems (again!)
Got the Z1 together, looks good, runs bad.
Contemplating bringing it and troubleshooting it there.
Didn't get bikes cleaned and loaded, nor packed.
What a day!
Tomorrow , I'll pack the trailer wheel bearings, pack clothes, tools , parts
Leave late Sunday or early Monday.

Shane, in a pinch I have had success with soaking the internal rubber pieces in lacquer thiner so they swell and reinstalling on the Z1 petcock. Monitor them as you are doing it as it is easy to over do and make them too big to fit. Hitting the road for DG 2013 :D :D :D
