I decided to bring my Goldwing along with us to pick up the new heart I am going to transplant into it over the upcoming winter.

We head out tomorrow to head for Rockford, TN then over to Memphis then up to St. Louis, MO to visit a fine couple for a few days then back into Indiana then on home over the next week

So if you see a really sweet looking GL1500 on the road  that ain't us...:goofygrin:

It's a faded Wineberry with a really loud transmission!!

Has owl eyes driving lights bolted to the crash bars too so it should be easy to spot!

We killed the sheep sleeping on the seat so that will not be seen..:littleangel:

Otherwise it will be hiding in a white Pace American trailer being pulled by a Silver Toyota Sienna - Ontario tags..:D

If you can make the sheepskin come alive, then the engine will be no problem at all.

I wonder if there is anyway to design an alternator for the 1200's that would hook up like that where the stator is now???

Just a thought from a demented mind.

Hey Mr. Fix It, drop me a PM about your travel plans, if your coming down I-40 from Rockford to Memphis you'll pass by my way I'm about 30 minutes off the Interstate, maybe we can get together around Jackson for some coffee.

Ride safe
