    ...and big kudos to the guy who rode to the start and rode home at the end...even after his Indian caught on fire!
    Thanks Harry. And yes, Kelly Modlin is an animal and a gentleman. If you are ever in Kansas, stop in to his antique motorcycle museum. Twisted Oz.

    • Also, I wanted to mention that we raised $200 for Angie through t shirt sales. I wish it were more, but hopefully it will help feed the kids in the short term. Angie gets her first brain surgery on Tuesday, then they have to wait like 6 months for it to heal and do the other side. Prayers.

          • Kevin,

            Great job! Loved meeting and riding with you!

            I'm anxious to hear your post ride report on the new lifter performance. You didn't seem to have any problems passing me any time you wanted to!!

              Good meeting you too Gene. The new parts worked perfectly. I will post more info in a month or so.

              Remember, your bike was pulling a chair and a passenger. I was surprised how well it performed.

              • Before I get too busy, I wanted to post these videos of the Going to the Sun Road in Glacier Park. It's a lot of footage, I haven't had time to edit it. I hope you enjoy them.
























                Cheers,

                    Ya, the GoPro's aren't very good at recording sound. It's a shame. I don't know if the later versions are better. It would probably be worth upgrading for if they are.

                    • Thanks for sharing! I hope to get to do that ride on my 32V in a couple of years. Will be looking forward to your PM of the bike for wear and tear. If you choose to after some down time for yourself.

                      • Great videos! It looks like you're moving along at a pretty good speed. Any idea of your "mph" you were traveling in the 2nd video? Congratulations on your ride!

                          Probably high 40s to low 50s.

                            • Hi Jake, congratulations on completing your second cannonball. I followed with interest both your journey and also a couple of others.

                              You may have answered this already and if you have and I have missed it then sorry for the duplication.

                              How did the new re-engineered cam followers fare? Also what was the bike like with its revised timing?

                              John
