RESPONSE TO BEEMER CYCLES
Hey guys!
Bike is strong as an ox. Really did a number on her getting to Mexico though. Fully loaded up and averaging 90 MPH for 4 days straight...Franky didn't like that too much but rarely gave any complaints.
Just got a 10k check-up at a huge BMW motorcycle dealership in Costa Rica. They were shocked at the milage, but not the dings and bangs all over. They turned me onto a strange noice coming from the engine...double checked all valves, etc and nothing was off so the deduce that the cam chain has developed a lil swagger due to weakinging spring somewhere.
Your blog reminded me of something I owe you. I am on it this week...indeed I have a long list of people and companies I need to give credit to or I would not be here.
Thanks for the shout-out!--X

HAHE...
You know how it goes, guys always exaggerate their exploits to their buddies. The only love affair I can report on with a straight face is between me and my Franky. I ride him hard all day, in the mud, rain in ditches, etc. Just needs a lil TLC and we can go for months on end...oils and premium fluids need constant monitoring, as can be expected. Never wash him though, I prefer it dirty.
WOW-X

How is the bike doing? I see you only dropped it 9X. Not bad at all. It snowed it's ass off over the past weekend so we are praying for RAIN. I bet you have plenty of that where you are now?!
Good luck, we are following you!
