Forest get to Purpalaland
Just to let everyone know that Forest made it on Friday over 1100 miles with a few hours to spare. After riding in a bunch of rain and losing one boot, pair of chaps, and leather vest when his hatch on the trailer came open. It was really dark and didn't know until someone pulled up beside him to let him know.
We spent most of the day Saturday doing repairs and oil change on his Spyder. His tag almost fell off and was warned just before it came off and then he scraped the end off his trailer wiring connector. A bumping noise turned out to be his stock muffler bracket getting loose and vibrating the attachment bolt. It could be taken loose by hand.
The oil change service he got just before leaving was not the best as oil was all under his bike and all we could determine was that it was coming from a very sloppy oil change. It must have run onto every panel and not cleaned. We did a good check on everything and did the filter and oil properly.
He is now ready to roll tomorrow. The pictures attached are of him working on his trailer and a few that show mine almost completely apart. It's now ready to roll also.
See you folks tomorrow night!
