Pete we can plan on 8:45ish. Rick and I can still meet in Gavers and swing through Carrollton. @Muckles you can meet either place if you like.

Do you want to just meet in New Corcord? We could possibly adjust and meet in Carrollton if @Gpaw is good with it if you want to extend your ride time.

I’ll be there around 8:15 or a little before is my guess.

As long as the weather is good I plan to be @ the New Concord Marathon gas station right on 83 by 10:30. I’ll probably be on the CBR, but I may ride the Concours. We'll see who all is interested in riding. If anybody wants to catch me on my way down chime in. I'll essentially be making my way from Lisbon. I'm not planning to loop back to New Concord. More than likely I’ll be running my normal route. 83-78-377-676 or 550-26-260S-800-26-537-260N-145-800-22-9-home. Feel free to split off whenever it's best for you. Pace will be medium to medium fast. Let me know if you’re interested

Buy this 1 then you can say it does 😁.

What do you do when you wake up in the morning and can hardly walk because your back is so jacked? When you do walk your totally out of alignment and all crooked. You throw your leg over your chiropractic CBR and ride it for 525 miles and you start to feel better 😋. Your results may vary from mine. What a difference between the CBR and Concours. I had to adjust my throttle inputs today. I can kind of ham fist the Concours and not upset much of anything. The CBR needs much smoother inputs.

I rode to MVNU to see my wife and daughter at a district choir camp. I always wanted to ride my bike to college but never did due to the inconvenience. 22 years later I made it happen. Better late than never.

Rode Tim’s route today. It was great. My return route was decent outside of the dirt road with a steep decent to Hades on pebbles. I survived though.

Well thank you very much sir. Looks fun.

Thanks I’ll check that out.

Anybody know of any good routes leading to Mount Vernon coming from the east? I’ll be starting my journey from Lisbon/Cadiz area.

Glad you were able to make the best of it.

Sounds like fun but unfortunately once school starts I’m not able to do things like this. How was your recent trip?

I’m not going to be able to make it boys. Enjoy your ride.

What time are you people planning this and where?

Lookin good @NinjaDoc

Will do Doc. Miss riding with you buddy. Hope all is well with you and your family.

Thanks man. Her and I both loved it.

That it was buddy.

I can probably sneak in a week day and possibly Saturday.

Took the time to set the sag today for just me. Plenty of enough there to get it set correctly for just me. Did some research as well on dampening. I was definitely going the wrong way. I backed the screw off to just above factory. We’ll see if that helps in the future. Thanks for everyone’s input. @MSerfozo it seems as though I probably won’t need that spring. With the bike set for just me I still have quite a bit of adjustment I can add for a passenger. Thanks again for the offer.

I haven’t measured sag yet. I need to find some time and get a second set of hands. I need to do my research to figure out if your spring will even work. I got home Thursday and left Friday morning for a 6 hour trip to New York in the car. Then returned last night at 10pm. So I haven’t had time to look at the bike. Sorry I didn’t respond prior. I was trying to gather other’s thoughts. Once I get my ducks in a row I’ll get back to you. Thanks for the offer. It’s very kind of you.

I’m one of those guys that wants a new Wing. I’m too cheap to purchase a high end shock, however, so I don’t see me financing $28,300 for a new bike.

The front seems to be wearing fine. I think I can definitely get a little more out of the rears than I have so far. I just replace the rear right before the tail trip because the tire I had on there was definitely not going to make the whole trip. I usually get 6000 out of a set on the CBR. My concern is it starting to look like it may be three rears to one front. I read over on COG Where a guy said that’s typically his MO. Three rears to one front.
