Boomer welcome to the great state of Arkansas And thank you for your service

Ill have to keep looking for the new one. Add to my other 22 old style lol Haven't seen one at wally world since Jan

Had a great time this weekend - part of my CVMA family met at Cabot, AR on Friday morning. Took Hwy 5 to AR-124 to Hwy 65 - to AR 7. Just a warmup for AR-123 (The Arkansas Dragon) Damn I love driving that road. Then to Jasper AR and on to the Old Dogpatch to stay at the HUB at about 4:30. Saturday did the roads to Ponca and the surrounding country. By the time we made it home Sunday to Little Rock, we had about 600 miles of driving. Wife's face was a little chapped from all the wind therapy, but she loved every mile. Leaves are just starting to turn. Love to hear my buddies tell me how great they ride the twisties, until I tell them I'm on my brakes half the time waiting for them to speed up lol

Doc - if the forecast would have held out, I would have given you a shout as we had planned to go through Fayetteville to see my brother, but didn't want to chance it.

Looking forward to heading up to Jasper Ark this weekend to relax and drive some twisty roads Friday and Saturday. Maybe head over to Fayetteville on Sunday WeaTHER SHOULD BE PERFECT

Forgot to include my buddy’s plane in a group photo

Got to hang out at the local airport with FIFI yesterday. Had a great time talking to the flight crew

Almost a shame it didn't happen the guy filming. Riding a motorcycle in traffic is already tough enough without doing stupid sh*t like that. I'm just glad my bike is too wide to lane split. Ill just take my time getting to my destination when I ride my Valkyrie - at least its just a little easier to be seen in the SS. And people wave with 5 fingers not just one

I was really planning on making it there on at least Saturday. But this is a CVMA chapter yearly fundraiser, so I have to support them (like they support my chapter). Always next year. The drive to Hot Springs will be nice though. Told my wife she needs to be wearing a jacket for the morning.

Well, I wont be able to make it Have another commitment to my motorcycle association in Hot Springs on Sat that I cant get out of.

Still hoping to make it - a few little issues trying to occupy my ride up there.

No prize fish - largest was 2 lbs. Limited out with 5 keepers. I fished barbless hooks so catch and release for the most part. Caught about 20

Took a great ride on Friday to go trout fishing in Yellville, AR US-65 then AR-27. Love AR-27 when there is no traffic. Love taking the curves. Trout fishing was great, even with low water on the White River. Coming back Saturday was lot slower - Tahoe in front of me didn't know how to accelerate, only brake - bad when there is no where to pass on AR-27. Lot of holiday traffic heading to the Buffalo River

Sweet deal

Hope to be there on Friday - Saturday is an absoulte

Boomer - thanks for the warning! Lol Another reason Ill just follow him

I've got it on my calendar to take a couple days off for this. Doc, Ill follow your lead Lol Hopefully this dang COVID will be diminishing by then.

I should have said 89 & above octane (sorry about that). I usually buy my Premium at Sammy's Club, so I know that there a plenty of folks pumping it (they only have regular and Premium grades). My SS is stock. If I'm on a ride or something or out of town, I always use the highest octane I can find.

Anyone using 87 octane in their SS on a regular basis. I've had a couple mechanics tell me that it is ok to use 87. Their argument is that 91 and above usually just sits in the storage tanks too long. And that the SS motor can run fine on 87 with no additives. Any thoughts? If this has come up before, sorry I didn't look through every page on this site. Im always used 91, but want to hear any discussion.

Ive ridden AR 123 a few times over the years. But never in the SS

Lol I didn't think it warranted a picture My buddy also has the seats from my 19 SS in his 15 SS. But I didn't take pics of those either lol
