Hey guys, just checking in.
I finally got the GPz finished; the idle jetting got all screwed up somehow, but I managed to figure it out and fix it. I can't find a wiggins on the map on the first page, so I suspect the most current map is somewhere else? Already in Ohio? Jim, what are the current arrangements for my leg? Are you getting it from wiggins and then going to head my way?
My notifications from here are still not working, but if you use GSR PMs I can get those easily.
Thanks, kk

Got it. Thanks.
Looks like I got the bike running just in time. I'd better put some test miles on it pretty soon.
Jim, LMK how this is going to work. Who do I pick up from, where, who do I meet, etc.
Thanks.

Testing is complete. Bike is good. I had (almost) forgotten how fantastic it is to ride, compared to driving. Sheer bliss.
Current flag schedule is much, much less than perfect. And thanks.

;) I wish like he!! I could say the same about my KZ. Working on that right now in between home repairs. Hopefully I can get some jetting bugs worked out before it's my turn to ride.
Glad your bike is running well. Makes it all worthwhile.

Looks like there might be a marathon of handoffs this coming weekend! It is still with Wiggens but might make it to Indiana by Sunday.

Asevans/KoolAid Kid - are either of you guys available to meet me somewhere between Cincy and Indy this Sunday possibly?

Ok, I'll meet Hypnohio in Chillicothe at the Roosters this Saturday afternoon, I know of only one decent photo op with the town name there but maybe we'll see something else while there this time.

Asevans, I'll meet you Sunday at the LaRosa's, Skyline or DQ in Batesville if that works for you. I'll PM Les And KK to see if I can get one of them to ride down with you as that would help next weekends situation. I'll PM you to coordinate time, etc.
