Cool lazy day - in the house, hot swamp weather outside. Lot of rain last night. After yesterday's activities I wondered if I'd be able to put my socks on this morning, but I woke up in fine shape. Not complaining about that. I do feel like a nap wood be nice right about now.

Protesters... I'm expecting one of these city riots to reach the breaking point, and even the most liberal of governors won't be able to save them.

I'll be on the ''right'' side of that incident if it arises.

Went to my friend's place today. Got the front end if his bike back together and went for a cruise. The 4 of us. I feel like my engine is a little lacking and could use a little power. Any ideas for a 96ci to squeeze more out of her?

I was just looking into what it takes to get her to 107ci. A lot, that's what. The engine has 37k in the clock. She's still young, but my friends were on newer bikes that pulled like freight trains. Between that an my springer, I wasn't carving canyons.

You have a lighter bike then I do , but what RPM range are you comfortable with ?

I put Andrews 48 cams in my 09 ultra and have no problem keeping up with stage one 103s , I like to stay in the 2500-3500 range
