we have a pretty decent Tex Mex place, a less good Tex Mex 'all you can eat fajita buffet' that recently quit putting beef fajitas in the buffet, Shobels' is 'Murican food (you deserve pie), with a lunch buffet, though it can be crowded if you don't get there early a Chinese buffet, and the usual fast food suspects in the area (wahttaburger, taco smell, burger king (new) and a dairy cone, though you gotta eat outside there lol

we used to have a Denny's, but they closed down due to not enough business (I once waited over 3 hours after ordering there, can't understand why no one gave them any buiseness)  

I think you'd like Schobels, if we get there before the rush. Onlt place i ever saw keeps a big chunk of cheese next to the pies (It's a german thing, apple pie with cheese)

I sorta miss my 500, but my hips just wouldn't tolerate it any more, more's the pity
I'm still tempted sometimes to get another"

if we're meeting noonish, is anyone gonna want to eat? there's a few places to grab a bite here, depending on tastes [/quote]

Nope to both... I have a 2013 Kawasaki Ninja 300.... great little machine.... water cooled, fuel injected, 4.5gal tank, averaging about 64 mpg (if i'm easy on throttle).... and with a custom rattle can Krylon paint job!

Maybe you can help AC, I picked up a vegas headlight with 2 bulbs.
H11 on top and H8 on the bottom, which one is the highbeam?

Thanks  

Ah, the setup I have is similar, but all cortech so the tailbag is smaller
just thought I'd offer, in case you were in the market
your back objected? my back bitches more about the S40, it was my hips and sometimes knees on the Ninja
100miles at a go is pretty much the limit of the stack savage tank, so.....

There will be rest stops during the day rides.  A lot more than what you guys are going to do on the trip in!  Then again, the day rides will be a little more tiring.. more hills, turns, critters..  
I am a bit concerned that ya'll will be in shape for the Saturday ride after battering your bodies all day Friday!  
We shall see!! and can adjust to the needs of the many..

You guys are starting to scare me a little. My longest ride so far is about 200 miles and my backside was numb by the end of the day. Also, I've only ridden with a backpack on or a small gym bag on the back seat. i guess I'll need to figure something out. No worries. We shall figure it out. (We? What am I, the queen of England?)
