North American Relay Ride Leg #2

I have pm'd johnny and tek9ine and have yet to hear from them but did see johnny reply to a post on the weekend? Drooz is on his way here with the flag (1 hr.) but the weather is becoming unpredictable for the rest of the week so it may not continue until the weekend. JR is waiting for the flag so I guess it is becoming the proverbial hot potato to keep it moving which is unfortunate for those who haven't responded. In the end, I think it's important to keep it moving quickly for those who are ready, willing and able. Will show some pics later.

Just a quick note to say that I am ready willing and able to take the flag and take it to Michigan. London is definitely on my route and I think its a great idea to get a London pic with the flag in memory of Jack. That I can do.
M357.5 - let us know if you would like to participate at this stage.
Kawboy74 - Just got in and I'll send you a PM later.

noo... we in Michigan are just waiting patiently.... :whistle:

I hope you are able to make that picture "tribute stop".

Will be in Bristol Tenn. for the Nascar race weekend of the 25th. Hope I still get to be part of this relay.

Got the flag from Drooz so will begin the planning of moving it along. I have a feeling it will be Sunday before it will begin its next leg of the trip but will keep an eye on the weather channel. If M357.5 wants to connect somewhere in between that will be fine but will need a pm prior to getting things organized with JR

Thanks David
Sunday woud be ok also. Check your PMs

It was pretty special to be in on this relay! It's always cool to spend time with friends like Rob and to make new friends with guys like Dave!

Gotta say, it felt a little like handling a "hot potato" though, looking for someone to toss it to! I didn't want to hold up the process!

Here's the pic of the hand off to Dave (kawboy74) last night!







The h2 is a dream to ride! I still had most of the feeling left in my hands after getting home! :laugh: I had to get the KZ on the road to do the second leg though! This is kzrider, right? :laugh:


I called Barry yesterday (m357.5) with the idea that we might be able to ride towards each other in order to get him in on this. We only spoke for a second or 2. He was extremely busy. I waited for him to call me back, but he didn't. I called later and there was no answer on his cell. I figured it would be best to just move on as scheduled.

It's really too bad that so many likely won't get to be a part of this due to holidays and other things getting in the way. That's life though!

Does anyone know if Tek9ine is in or out? He seemed pretty into this earlier, hope he is OK.

Also Toad is after JR, been a long while since he has posted about this best I can tell, so is he in or out?

If they are out then it goes to JR then on to Bear and back into the states then as it stands now.

Glad you guys are going to tribute Jack, I think it's a nice gesture, I had hoped that we could do that in his memory!

I PM'd toad a few weeks back and had no response. One of the Michigan guys tried also. Toad has not logged on for almost a month. He may have decided not tp participate.

Man, those are some kinda fine Kawis guys. But PLEASE don't stand in front of them so we can drool over the pics of the bikes :silly:
Drooz, how do you like the new pipe? Did you make any vids of the bike with the new system? Sure would be nice to hear.
Performance compared to the modified Bassani?

No video yet. The kz isn't running as well as it should, but the "seat of the pants" dyno says it might be pulling a little stronger from mid range to the top. I'm waiting on a "new" set of bs34's to arrive and a new cam chain and tensioner. We should have a better idea how she runs then.

I'll try to get a short vid up regarding the sound as it sits asap!
