She's left port...

Ayuh, she's walked around the wheelhouse and left port.. Madam and I rode out escort to Woodstock Vt where a few tears were shed.. I expect my part is just about a done deal now, and will likely resign to the comments sections as I maintain following as best we can on the trips and the events...

Max rode off with a bit of love in her pocket from this place deep in my woods... She will be missed by the dogs, Gordon Madam Gwyn and myself Mac... Maybe in the turns of event in life we will meet again somewhere.. Anyway I'ld like ta' think so.... She sure would always be more than welcomed back again, just lets all hope not too soon...

We made a similar trip and so we understand the why's, and know the stress of a long days ride too... The bike seems sound from my points of view. There may be some wear and tear items that will need attention on the way. Ft brake pads might be one. The charging system is working well, and so I am not worried about that.

I'ld like to see that ft tire air pressure checked often untill it is known to hold air pressure. My concern was assuming it had proper pressure in NZ and only had 7 psi here, that the tube might be old and perhaps weak.... The tires themselves look good, as does the rest of the bike..

A rear brake adjustment was found needing which was done and is easy needing no tools...

Max... We wish you the best luck, and may Gods speed take you through clean.... Love Mac and Gwyn.
