I sometimes use WD-40 to change my tires. It seems to work well. No way in hell that I would use it for cosmetic reasons.

Just throwing this out there, if I do win this year I will give the prize to second place.
How about second to last place?

True story
I blew mine with 30k+ miles. After that, I became much more careful about keeping the front end on the ground. 600+ lb. bikes aren't meant to have their front wheels off the ground. Travel safe guys! I wish I could have made the trip!

Quit riding woolies on that thing!

Something else about the Connie, the wind protection allows riding all year long. I rode the Connie to work in the mid to upper 30s yesterday and it was nice. I rode the FZ1 today at 39 degrees, and it was noticeably cooler. If you so decide, you will not need to winterize your freight train.

You probably won't have any valves that are too tight on your first service. Do the items that Tim mentioned above, and the Connie will be a great bike for you. Plenty of room to bring a week's worth of stuff for a vacation, but sporty enough to have a lot of fun when you get there. Sport touring bikes are where it's at.

My standards for hotels are very slow, so I figure we'll be good.
I've stayed there. It's not bad. There is a Mexican Restaurant in walking distance, and there is a liquor store down the road. Beer selection in town is not very good.
Enjoy the trip! Speed safely!

As usual, my team sucked.

My second 10U is working well. I wanted to switch to the 20S when my first 10U failed. After reading these comments on the 20S, I am glad they didn't let me change to the 20S.
Sena used to be the best product on the market. If there products keep having issues, somebody else will step up with a better product.

I remember my first time I went to Hatfield McCoy(early 2000's we stayed in Gilbert, WV). Rockhouse is definitely rockiest of all the trailheads. We used to go to the Little Coal River Trailhead, which is now closed. @Connie14 print and laminate a map of whichever trail system you're going to ride, it makes it nice being able to glance at the map.
Thanks! I will definitely print one off. We are headed over to the Buffalo Mountain trailhead near Williamson.

Take it your knee is back to 100%. Have you ridden Hatfield before?
My knee is back to 100%. I haven't been to Hatfield yet. One of my friends that organized the trip has been there. It should be a lot of fun. I do not intend to not get in over my head with any of the really tough trails.
Have you ridden it? (If so, any advise?)

Motor oil change, transmission oil change, air filter change, and new rear tire on the CRF. I am now ready for 3 days off riding at Hatfield McCoys next weekend.

Does anyone have any suggestions on getting the suspension sag setup? I am in Pataskala, but I can ride to wherever. I have never setup sag before.

^^This will be your friend! Best bang for the buck in that price range as far as I'm concerned.
I have been periodically checking that website for nearly a year while researching potential bikes. It seems to be a good resource.
My initial thought is to do very little to the bike this year. I want to put on some miles before making too many changes. I can ride the Connie if I need to go long distances. After a thousand miles or two, I will look at the reflash and other modifications. I would like to ride one with a reflash to see if it's worth it.

Auto draft for me as well.

Four holes in the floor, drop in lag bolt anchors and lag bolts. Unbolt it when you aren't using it. I've been doing this for years.
Me too

Anything would be great. I completely expect you to beat my team this weekend.
