Sucks... electrical issues are the worst. 

And we wont have any B bikes laying around for you to ride this year :p

I will if I'm there. Can't guarantee that both of mine will be running though. One has a lot of gorilla tape on the wiring. :p

I thought Brandon was fighting an overheating issue... electrical?

It was, but remember it kept sounding like he was hitting the rev limiter at like 6k rpm? So maybe the overheating issue is resolved and now this is a new thing.

I do remember not being able to keep it alive when I was riding it back to the trailer at NCBike... Hmm.

Eh, both sort of. The overheating seemed a little better, then an electrical issue popped up. It was the out lap, with like 25 bikes following me into turn 1 at NC bike and it decided to stall out. I put my hand up and rode off into the grass, and once the rpm's got below 4k, it bump-started itself. Now it runs, but acts like it's hitting the rev limiter at 4k. Diagnostics say everything is ok, I'm suspecting a crank position sensor because I've had problems with it in the past. The one on it now is an aftermarket one that I don't trust.

Picked up a new tow vehicle last week, so should be a little more comfortable on the long drives. 

Unfortunately it sets back my toy hauler aspirations another year :/

I mean the truck was pretty comfy......... Is it a bus?

I wish lol, just a nicer newer truck. 

The old one was having head gasket issues that I didnt want to deal with. 

It will be nice to get in after a hot track day and turn on the AC seats, missed having those.

Not sure what else that could be. 

I borrowed a truck with the 5.4 once to go to mid ohio and about 2 minutes from the track it had a misfire. Thankfully I found a shop beside a NAPA store and they got it fixed within a half hour, was a bad coil.
