It's going to be a bit chilly but I want to get in one last Rattlesnake ride for the year. I'll probably be leaving Pullman around 10 or 11:00. If anyone is interested, let me know.

Shhhiiiit, You have handwarmers no?

Can Chad install an entire exhaust system including replacing a stud and tune the bike to the new exhaust before 10-11, Probably not. I think its just getting cold enough for me to ride. Have a good one.

Good luck with that install. Looks like I'll be on my own since johnny is a wimp.

Oh man!! Bummer I saw this thread a day too late. I would have joined you for sure. How many miles have you put on the new-to-you Uly? How do you like it so far?

I've put about 400 miles on it. I love it so far although there is a lot of learning still to be done. It's not as forgiving as the XL1200 or DR with ham handedness in the twisties so I need to learn much better throttle control. Particularly not chopping the throttle mid-corner...it drops if you do that. Plus, it turns in so much quicker that it takes finer movements. It is very comfy for me though so I think it will be a good long-distance replacement for the XL.

Your just used to the BIKE telling you when your done leaning

I hope my new exhaust doesn't drag like the supertrapp did. (still not installed

)
