  3. All last year I pulled a small HF trailer weight 200 pound loaded This year a camper weight 450 - 475 loaded When I headed to MD it felt a Bit light in the front end B4 heading home I packed it different moving more weight to the back of the trailer this seemed to make a difference last year it took a few tries to get the load balanced so the bike handled a way I liked load it up drive it around if it doesn't feel right open it up and move some stuff around

  5. Hey Scott, I moved to Ohio 3 years I am in Canal Winchester. I have wanted to cruise along the lake and check out some light houses and maybe end up at Tony Paco's for some fried pickles Columbus Dispatch had an article and map I still have 3 years now Or the other direction to see some covered bridges in Ashtubula I have a map for a tour of the bridges Any of those would be an overnight trip for me but it would be fun. Any one in the south west part of the state Rabbit Hash is an interesting place its in Kentucky Rt 33 dinner near Hocking Hills is a nice place to eat its also connected to a flea market and a ride after then ice at Old Mans Cave Sometimes I like to load up the trailer find a park and have a cookout. Who is next lets find some place to get together

  19. I clean the windshield using Plexus and a micro fiber towel-- truth plexus is over priced I keep a small can in the saddle bag When the bugs are heavy bugs prestone windshield wash I do limit that. BIKE BRITE Moto Mask Windscreen Rain Coating works good I started using last year best part the bugs don't stick as bad and makes easy cleaning not cheap 9.00 for 4oz you barely need any and it will last Honda Glare Ultra wash for the rest of the bike
