I don't know who brought the fake oil spill, but Randy slept in Sunday, so he was last one to get it. The guy with the Honda seemed a little ruffled when he found under his ST1300 . . . :whistle:

Fair warning, Randy has it now and can mess with whomever he thinks will "enjoy" it the most. :grin:

(Notice how docc knows precisely where an oil spill is most likely to occur under a V11. :huh: )

It was gone when I left, I think the original owner may have retrieved it.

 Yes, the OO -- who was second to the last man out -- did.  :D

Last man out yesterday, beautiful day for the ride home.

I want to see bike pics!

 

More -- actually, way more than needed, of course :grin: -- will follow after I get home.

In meantime, did buy this from the 129 guy ...

Here's a link to my photos.   Rode by myself, ate by myself, so not many of the fella's rides but a few of the Tech Session discussions.

SpineRaiders are serious about their TechSessions. "Bring Tools" really struck a chord with HRC_V4 and Tom in VIrginia. Thanks for all the contributions, guys! :luigi:  :thumbsup:

Other than the miraculous missing (but caught in the wiring harness!) bolt find on Randy's Coppa Italia, the TechSesions were largely electrical . . .

Well it was good to see everyone and at least make an appearance...

Following the electrical discovery in the garage Saturday night, I came to coffee the following morning, and when went to leave the battery completely failed; 12.54v at rest (low from cranking obv.) to 5.4 while attempting to start. That Odyssey PC545 doesn't have 200 miles on it, a few months old, and has been on my NOCO smart charger no less than 3 times for insurance before this trip. 

So I put everything on the trailer and watched all the Indiana Jones movies. I never realized how awful the sequels are.

Monday, moved the truck to put up the other bike, and the bendix on the truck starter exploded. Literally finger-spin dead. Brand new Powermaster $300 unit with *maybe* 2000 miles on it. So unload the one good bike, bring a starter from NAPA and do a parking lot change. 
We did get home uneventfully, eventually. Bleah.
