Full electrical shutdown, both fuses intact. Sitting here waiting on the wife, the truck and the trailer. 2300 and change right now. Sam has signed his own death warrant. To the rifle range he goes.

Changed battery. Got a grand total of maybe 1/4 mile and something let go. Surging, popping, stumbling like a V8 with a couple plug wires crossed or a distributor that skipped several teeth.

44k and change on the bike. Timing chain was on the 2nd hole at around 19k miles... Roll pin was missing within 10 miles of install... Not even going to bother opening the case up.

Junking out.
