Great story so far! Bad news about the tire, though...
To be continued, I presume.

That's a nice ride down that way. Sorry bout the tire troubles.
Lynchburg HD is still doing what they do best! SERVICE. Some friends of mine were coming back from the Smoke Out in NC a few years back when one of the bikes fried the regulator. They swapped batteries between bikes to get them rolling and called Lynchburg HD, they said they were due to close before they could get there, but said they would wait for them. And they DID. The group had tools to do the job, but the folks wouldn't leave until they were done replacing it and confirmed all was good.
