Afternoon, Russ.
Day started out nice, but has become cold and windy with a hint of moisture in the air.

Back from a short ride. Never got over 50F. Cheryl opted to drive the truck and meet me for lunch. Filled up the bike with non-ethanol Premium and Seafoam. Looks like cold weather coming and I doubt I'll get the bike out much until we head south west.

Lookin good Greg! When you license the bike do you need to have the VIN looked at? Nothing like that here.

BTW - Cheryl and I a few years back on the Dragon-

You chose the right color bike!!!
Yes, they verify that all the numbers match. No other inspection.

So, while I was there chatting with the service manager, Nick, I notice the dyno room is right next to the desks there, so I inquire about their expertise and costs. Which tuners they like to work with, etc. He says they work with them all, particularly Power Vision. I ask if they are map tweakers or actual tuners that get into the maps and cells he says his guys are very good, not just tweakers. So I mention that I'll be getting a PV and he says that for $390 I can just buy a license from them for their PV system and they'll take care of everything from there and goes on to tell me about how much more beneficial that is to me.
Cue the eyeroll.
I'll be going elsewhere for a dyno run after I get a PV from Fuel Moto.
Right now about the only thing I can think of having them do is a brake flush.

Big decision for today - what for lunch? Since there's nuttin to report, think I'll work on that. Mexican sounds good. Or Italian, or pizza on a tortilla, little bit of both. Or just a peanut butter and dill pickle samich. Don't have to worry about anybody wanting me to share that...
ever try a peanut butter and mustard sammich ?
