I am looking forward to the Gap this year, but my daughter is getting married the Saturday before. :thumbup: I have to shuttle people to the airport afterwards. I have family coming in from Florida and Virginia that plan to stay several days and visit. It makes it difficult to make concrete plans. I am guessing I will just plan to camp and get there when I can. At least it is only a 2-hour drive so I can play it my ear.

I have a few things I want to do to the H2. Install Ivan's kit, replace pipes and turn signals with nicer sets I have and general clean up. But, if it doesn't happen, I'm not going to stress about it. 2 stroke smoke will be in the air and that's all that matters!

70 days.gentlemen. I ordered custom hardened anodized sprockets from Sprocket Specialists for the Phoenix. I also ordered chain and sprockets for the RZ from John at Economy Cycle. All thats left to order is a new rear tire and tube for the RZ.
