Re: Paris Ontario Swap Meet
I just looked at the map and found this is doable for me except my wing is not completely right.
I would take the New Indian Scout, but my a$$ can't take a long ride on that seat.
I would have liked to meet some of my NGW friends and have them critique my wing.
Anyway y'all have fun.

Re: Paris Ontario Swap Meet
I could smear the seat with Preparation H!
I feel sorry for the people in the old days that had to go through Preparation A through G before they got it right.

Re: Paris Ontario Swap Meet
Doug, you had me going. I went on line to look and see what I need for ID to come & go across and found that it's too late to apply for an Enhanced license. Rest assured I'll be ready next time.CYBORG wrote:Just start early,....and stop to rest a lot
You really convinced me to go, but sorry no can do. Because of the ID requirements I can't even go by car.
I'm going to fix what ales my Wing tomorrow, it's just the clutch adjustment.

Re: Paris Ontario Swap Meet
Well, can't get around that one. Wish you were coming. It will be my last trip....this month. One of the best swap meets that I have ever been to. And I always seem to win a good door prize. Scored a free helmet last year. I'm going on the 78 this year. We had a problem on the central run. Motel in Springfield Mo. Came out in the morning, and someone had cut the wires going to the dash, and one of my sparkplug wires....and stole the oil filler caps, on both bikes. Slowed us down a bit. Got there and back ok, 1500 miles. But all repairs have not been done yet. Anyway, sorry you cvn't make this rally

Re: Paris Ontario Swap Meet
Doug,
I'm sorry that you & Gordy got vandalized, that must of really made your guys livid! Mean people are everywhere.
I look forward to my visit this summer. If I put enough miles on the Wing I'll be taking it. I have to have confidence that I won't break down with her. Thus far, except for a squirrely clutch that I think just needs to be adjusted she's find.
Talk to you soon.

Re: Paris Ontario Swap Meet
Trike and I won't be coming to the Fairgrounds this time around, afterall.
I fell yesterday morning, and in the process of getting back up got off balance, again, and damaged my throttle hand when I landed on it under my right side ribcage with most of my weight bending the hand backwards; the wrong way.
Anyway...
A Very sore wrist, and a tweaked ring finger, which had previously been dislocated 10years ago, will eventually heal.
