Thank you for the kind words Forrest. I would ride with any day. We had a great time in WY. Would love to get another rally put together somewhere now that the bike is road worthy. Well almost.
Triple tree is still in progress, had to do a redesign after a Hardware failure on my brother's computer. Should have the drawing done next week and a 3D print prototype shortly after. Of course there will be pictures.
