Wow, I just can wow ! Unbelieveable ! Will be in Florida in July (starting in Miami, CapeCoral, Destin, St. Augustine, Florida City) and next year during the Daytona Bike Week, perhaps, I could have a look at it in person - if you still have your bike.

Cu,
Sven

RACNRAY
Hallandale ? Hm, know it. Have been a few times in that aera.

A little bit north at the Ramada Hollywood in 2010, a bit more north this year at the Ramada Plaza Ft. Lauderdale and last year at the Embassy Suites Ft. Lauderdale.



I will be only half a day in Miami (airport), when we fly in on july, the 3rd. We immediately head over to CapeCoral (we have rented a house there).
I will be back in Florida City on from July 21st - 23rd (we fly back home on the 23rd).

So, no hurry, cauz I will be back in march 2017 for the bike week.
Only one day in Ft. Lauderdale on the 9th of march, but from the 19th - 21st of march, I will be back with three buddy in Florida City.


Cu,
Sven

I hope, you wont be dissapointed about the quality of the indians vs. the Kawi.
Had a Roadmaster as a rental bike during the Bike Week this year. Great engine and transmission, but the build quality was bad. Chrom started to rust/peel off flake, frame some parts oxidized, etc.

Waiting for pics with 100.000 mls. IMHO, I would run the Kawi till it breaks down. Let us see, how long it lasts . . .


Cu,
Sven

Congratulations !

I think I'm way far from that. Next week I will have the 6000 kilometer service on mine.

Forget about the Indian, you Kawi brought you 100 K-mls. Never change a winning team ! So now, go for the next 100 K-mls !


BUT if you really switch to Indian, I would be interested in your I-Pod and Cable for the Kawi !


Cu,
Sven
