 Last weekend I did 1700 miles to Pittsburgh and back to NH on my '86  1200. I did have to crack to gas cap open one the highway once. Other than that it ran flawless tank after tank. Aside from a couple hundred miles of detours getting over the NY border , the ride was fantastic. Once these bikes are debugged they are pretty hard to stop.

wow that's a pretty long ride. Next you pass by NY and you want to meet up, give me a hollar. I'm good for a day's ride.

  I plan on going to a spring race at Highpoint or Buds Creek if the weather is good. I will also go to Unadilla in August in New Berlin NY. I'll give you a shout and we can do some miles together. I really enjoy riding in NY.
