A new record for me, 4,000 travel to purchase a Lemans

Where did you go to pick it up ?

 

 

Folsom, Ca to Minneapolis, Mn and back again.  

 

I'm hoping to make a trip in the next couple of years to visit my Uncle in Tennessee on the Lemans.  My longest time riding is 13 hours in a day on my Griso.  It's not so much an Iron Butt but more an Iron Back.  I have to get off every 90 minutes or so because my knees don't like being folded up all the time.

The bike originally came from Seattle and one of the previous owners drilled the upper triple clamps for regular bars.  The next owner reinstalled the stock clip-ons.   At $400 for a new triple clamp I'm just going to plug the holes and ride it.

Not sure where Uncle Not-Fishin'  is in Tennessee, but the Fourteenth South'n Spine Raid might bring you closer together!

 

(East Tennessee on the North Carolina line not far from Georgia/ The weekend after Labor Day in Tellico Plains, TN)

Weekend after labor day 2017???  

Might be a plan but I'm going to limit myself to 800 miles per day on the Lemans.

 

A man's got to know his limitations......

South'n Spine Raid: Weekend after Labor Day in Tellico Plains, Tennessee, from now on until V11 are so astronomically valuable that no one dares bring them out in public anymore. :rolleyes:

 

. . . .or they're declared instruments of destruction (is that a rock song?) and we make them all into Scura and only have Spine Raids under the cover of darkness. :ph34r:
