    Well I made it

    Well I left Maryland Sunday and rode about 460 miles.
    Got up this morning and it was so nice and cool before the sun came up.
    Then it was nice and cool while the fog lasted.
    Well the sun finally came around and it got real warm.
    Funny thing how you look down and it was time for gas again 200 miles time to stop..

    I don,the know about the rest of you but it,seems funny how the fangs come out
    and and I said self how about going one more tank. , We'll that turned into another
    and the next thing I knew I had done the whole 620 miles and I am here.
    Never knew the old man had it in him.
    MUST BE THE BIKE !!!

    Getting fuel

    I did not see any problem any place.
    Hope it stays that way. Price of gas was 1.99 a gal.

    No problems from west Florida through Mississppi and Arkansas.
    Got cheaper as the day went on.

    Cheers,

    Do a quick "spit test" of the valve stem! Sometimes a simple turn/twist of the valve core does the trick! If not, lay the 6 over, remover the tire and immerse the rim/tire and you'll find your leak for sure
