SF to LA

After got to Oakland spend 2 day there visited famelies and friends. Meet an old HS friend find out he has a sport bike dealer. Toke my scoot over there had an oil change, put on new belt for the way back to TX. The scoot ride a lot faster after changing the new belt ride mostly Freeway when got to LA. Love the CA Split Lane law. Motorcycle get to ride on HOV lane or squeeze between car at traffic jam during rush hour. Really cut down the commute time on a two wheel. I will be in LA till Tue before headed east to TX. Meet up my wife and kids for a weeding. Get a good rest before head into the hot heated weather.

Arrive there 4:00 am in the morning it was freezing at the bay in the morning. Total 748 mi from 10:00 am to 4:00 am next day gas and go, stop for pic, dinner 1 hr, take a nap at rest area for about 1 hr and haft. I think the problem has been solved that scoot ran very good now.

Back on the road again

Between Missoula MT and Seattle WA I lost almost a week because of the holiday weekend finally get back on the road Thu. After but in a new head gasket I tested drive the scoot up into MT Rainer NP. So far it ran very good Knock on wood. With all the day lost and trouble I decided to cut short my Canada and Alaska destination by going south instead of heading north. I'm just afraid of no support up there may be another time.
