As some of you might remember, I had everything back of the engine tore out
of my Eldo just a couple of days prior to my scheduled leave time for
Sturgis, SD....got everything back together with hours to
spare...:-)....trip up was pretty uneventful except that the solo seat I
decided to run tore my ass up, was just not as comfy as my regular seat.
One of the guys I rode up with had one of those gel but busters and it saved
the day...I guess I just don't have JB's hard ass...
Sturgis was PACKED with about every type of bike, though I saw only one
other Eldo and didn't get to talk to him....this was my 4th and last time to
do Sturgis, just too many folks to suit me....headed back through Nebraska
and ran into a hell of a storm, hail, wind and rain...we busted through that
and managed to stay in front of it the rest of the way home....no problems
with the Eldo save it went through a few qts of oil(I'm assuming all the
heat and traffic jams didn't help as I never saw any smoke or
leakage)....3000 total miles and glad to be home.....hopefully will have a
few pictures to post later....
