Hot and humid, strange weather for us. Usually get two 3 day spells of 90+ and that is it for heat. Today it is beautiful at 73, FINALLY!We have had a "Canadian summer" this year. only one day above 90, and it went down into the high 40's last night...

I have been corresponding with WolfChief, and he suggested adding a loop for the trip back...Here's the map I created based on his suggestions...Sooooo right now, there are 7 going, anybody else?
This is a great loop to ride also ..19 to 28 to 129 to parkway foothills then 321 to wears valley rd (cades cove) to 441 thru pigeon forge, Gatlinburg to Cherokee to MV about 190 miles...

I don't have the factory tool kit, and the one for the W doesn't have enough of the correct sizes to be of any use. I've decided to bring a test light, electrical tape screwdriver set, a long 5mm Allen wrench, so I can pop off my windshield, and, and a few sockets in appropriate sizes, tire pressure gauge, tread depth gauge, inspection mirror so I can check the oil (don't need to bring extra oil, it's not my Harley)...wait, how old are the bulbs?
As far as I know, the bulbs, except for the license lamp are all original...I have some left over stuff from all my H-Ds...no way I could have ridden one of those without replacing the headlight at least once...so 1 spare 2057 for the tail light, 1 194 for the license lamp, and one spare H-4 55/60 for the headlight...I'm not going to bother with the turn signal bulbs, since you can always hand signal....What are you guys bringing???
..........smh...LOL
