That's good. I was thinking maybe it was a coil. It acted similar to my boat engine when the coil
went south. But, cooling it off helped. And, a new coil costs $149 to replace what I have now.

I'll bet that Tim can get them for a lot less. One of the 454 big
blocks on my old Bertram 33 had a flaky coil that would go
intermittent when it was hot. Some genius had configured it about
two inches from the exhaust manifold.

Now that's a thought!

This is an interesting Harley I saw today.

Wonder how he keeps this one cool?

The front is probably an open grill, and there's vents on the sides. He probably never goes more
than five or ten miles per trip, so no need to worry a bunch.
