New Dyna coil and still no sparkles.

Swapped the ignition module with the one out of my GS and then got sparks.

Got one on order from Rick Jones.  he thinks the bad coil fried the module.

After riding yesterday I decided I needed my bars higher up. Installed ROX risers on it today and flushed the clutch with some fresh mineral oil.
Looks funny with the bars so high but feels great.

Nice...thinking about plating a Beta two stroke in the future instead of a 500 four stroke. You have any regrets range wise?

I installed a new tow rig this morning. Well, "poor man's" new...it's an '07 w/ 24k miles.

While not earth-shattering, it is significant for me. I just realized that before today, I'd fathered more children (two) over the last 17 years than number of 4-wheeled vehicles bought. I bought my current Expedition 9 1/2 years ago in 2008 when George W. was still President. Before that, I bought my previous Expedition six months before my first child was born in 2000. 

Hopefully I'll get 10 years worth of picking up new bikes out of this one.

I run out of gas before it does.
It's not fun for any long range on road but great for just connecting trails.
