Hey Jim,
It is LBP (Lozano Brothers Porting).
Talk to Mike Lozano.
They are off that short section of 311 between 3159 and 46.
Go east on 46 towards New Braunfels and take a left onto 3159 (towards Startzville/Canyon Lake), then go a couple hundred yards up 3159 and take a right onto 311.
LBP will be a couple hundred yards up on the right.
(If you miss it, you'll end up back on 46 to New Braunfels!!)

It's just a short drag between 3159 to 46 again so go slow.
It's a fairly new building and I think it's white sheetmetal construction.
He likes to dyno on Saturdays and you might have to make an appointment.
He's done a friend of mines Ultra Classic a couple of times.
Good luck.

I trying to work out some electrical issues on Road King with the new rear fender and lights.....wiring is not my thing!!
See ya around,
TRB

Yeah, I got it finally!!
Doggone molex connectors needs a special set of crimpers for these real small pins and the final crimp on the insulation has to be just right.
If you don't get it right, you can never get the pins through the back of the connector!!
Had to make do with all the tools I already have (and I DO have a few tools!!) because I'm not payin $300 just for the one set of Packard crimpers (that I may not ever use again!!).
If it was possible to remove that harness without major teardown and reassembly, I might have just taken it to the dealer and asked one of the mechanics to crimp them on for me.....but I refuse to let that little task kick my butt!!
I did finally get it, but lost the day (tracking down the problem, running out for more terninals and pins, making the repairs to the harness and putting everything back together and MAKING IT ALL WORK).
I was going to use this weekend to install my cams and new exhaust system on the Road King!!
Oh well, next weekend I guess.
Well, it's great to know that there is someone with those "wiring" talents available if one of these tasks DO kick my butt someday.....thanx for the offer.....I just may pick you up on it.
See ya on the next ride.....soon I hope
TRB!!

Glad you finally got, crimping without the proper tools can be a pain sometimes, but you it seems like you worked your way through it. Let me know if you ever need help with T/S wiring. See you a ride soon.

The good-old boys down at Cowboys set me up with a new 103 loaded, I'll be rolling

Hey OF&W's - I sold my bike a couple of weeks ago. I haven't had the opportunity to ride very much due to work commitments (I put 200 miles on it in the past 8 months) and will not have much time in the near future. I just wanted to tell you guys how much I enjoyed riding with you over the past couple of years. Hopefully, next year will slow down a bit and I will be able to get another scoot and join you again. In the mean time, thanks for some of the best days I've ever spent on two wheels!

It's been a real pleasure Mark.

I'm sure you'll be back.

You started this thread about 3 years ago and it's still going strong.

guitar player that you are, here's a shot I snapped a couple weeks back at JavelinaHD.

Don't know if any of ya remember a buddy of mine that rode with us a couple of times. His name was Al he rode a VFR. He owned a bicycle shop here in San Marcos. They found him dead in his shop on Friday morning. Don't know what caused it. They suspect it was a stroke.

Ya'll take care will see ya soon. River is almost thru this year.

Mark,

I only got to ride with you for a few months but always enjoyed it. I have a couple of bikes you might enjoy riding so if you get a chance to hook up on a ride just call me and you can use one of my bikes. Take care and hurry back. We'll miss you until you return.

Big Red
