Cool. I've never been in to Harleys. Three of my brothers are/were Harley guys, and kept bugging me
to get one. But, the Goose would out run and out curve the Harleys, and I could fix most anything
that went wrong with it.

And, BTW, the flasher did the trick. Everything's working again.
....

I'm glad it all worked out. Did you take it for inspection yet? I just got a renewal notice for my guzzi plates. I didn't know I've had it for a year already. There goes 41 bucks. Hmm insurance will be due shortly as well. Another annual couple hundred. Oh well. It's worth it though.

I agree with Milano over Milwaukee though. Btw, I'm still debating on the MV. I can get an Agista or Aprilla any time. Instead, I need to consentrate funds for restoring the Indian.


I'd be tempted to restore the Ambo, but then, I'm biased.

Yeah, took it in yesterday. Everything worked so I got the sticker. But, later on while riding the
dash lights went out and the engine died. Turning the key got them back on and got me going, but
when I cranked the throttle, it went 'pop' and died again. Played with it and got it back home.
Thinking maybe I had an ignition switch problem, I started to take it out. But, when I got to the
wires to the switch, I realized my messing with the signal wires and the wiring harness must have
loosened the connection. So I put it back in place. Just got back from a spin on the Beltway and all
is well...untill next time. Stay tuned.
