Barry I remember those kind of days in CO. ('84-'85) riding my H2 through the Black Forest. I'd head out of Aurora on Parker rd. Could'nt wait to get away from all the congestion and have the open road mostly to myself!!

Spoke too soon, I jinxed it. Loaded up for a few errands yesterday but leaving the driveway something not right. Seemed to work really hard to move like something binding really bad. I could feel a strong vibration on the shifter when engaging it so I turned around and went home.

Nothing obvious but will put it on the lift when I get the POS e-Bike off it. My usual process is to ride till something blows up - but my "I don't care attitude" is changing a little since I really enjoy the H2. It'll be my winter project for a tear down I guess, it's been a LONG time since the bottom end has been through.
