We are talking the end of next month, April not March correct? I need to re-assess. Yikes! Must be getting old.

I've got to quit reading this. I am so jealous. I can't believe I cannot make it on this one.

If we get the #50 cabin then we'll have a fourth bed !

Those cabins are not pricey even if we need two of them !
...........................

Paul , RE makes a GT version that is not far from the one you found ! Also , did you know they make a 865cc bolt on kit for it ? So it's an over-bore bike to begin with with 4 valves per cylinder. There is also a "+20%-Performance Cam" easy to get. And a DNA air intake kit that doubles the air intake capacity . There is a multitude of Free Flowing Exaust systems for it too. For under $8.5k , you can buy a new one , add all the HP add-ons and have a new Scream Machine ! The GT and Interceptor versions are just a little over 400 pounds. My Super Meteor and the Shot-gun versions are a little over 500 pounds.

It looks like this dealer bought-out some New-Old-Stock

My factory bike is only 48-HP , but that's more than enough for anything I want to do . I've grown lazy through the years ! Wink

I've got a Blue one of these , it's a little heavy for me but I put some Lowering shocks on it so I get by just fine.

Lancer are you OK , Should I do the reserving ? Are the dates of April 27 to 3 May good for everybody ?

I'd like to call them Monday afternoon if we don't have a cabin by then.
So
If our dates are already booked ... how about the week after ? I'm thinking cabin #50 just in case we need a fourth bed. Get there on Sunday for Sunday night and leave on Sunday Morning ?

some of these may be a little too far from Moab ... but maybe there could be another Camp ground close by them for next trip ? For 12,000 feet up I'm bringing a real jacket !

Can we delay the ride ? There’s Mothers Day shortly after. I hesitate going sooner because of cold in the mountains. If y’all cannot deviate then we can still use these dates. Let me know.

Of course it's all a carp shoot, but a month later we'll be pushing 90°s
But I'm flexible, might mean we'll need to take earlier rides.

Mothers day , 11 May.

My mother in law will be 101 by then !

I have no idea what to get for her , any suggestions ?
..................
Lancer you joking ? Embarrassed

If we have to sleep in the truck I'll speaking up for the "Passenger side right now" Wink

So, as of now we have Sunday night April 27 -Sunday morning May 4th. right ?
If so : I'll plan on being at your house April 25 or 26th.
OR
What's the best week for you ? We might get cabin 50 the week after ... May 4 - 10 would be Great for me !

Hay Lancer , you bringing the 650 or the 650 ? Huh

................

I have to be home by May 20th , I've got a date with Marcia in Helen GA , I don't want to miss.
So any of them weeks before (May 20th) are OK.

Warmer is good for me , I don't like cold and learned long ago "Cool is a frame of mind" Wink

Just let me know , like
Versey said ; I'm flexable. Wink
