NETT Rally sign up ASAP

Aaaarrrrgggghhhh!!! Think I blew my oil pump in mid NJ on I-78 earlier. Limped into hotel. To late for u haul rentals tonight. Hoping I can set something up in morning. 100 miles from home. I think severe traffic in NYC to blame. After came out of tunnel, let it rest for awhile.

That all said, depending on how fast it can be repaired, I may just trailer the 2 wheeler up to rally. But I still plan on being there.

Why do ya think that ? Sittin in traffic long enough will over heat into limp mode. You do not Trike/Bike in the rotten apple :nonono:

They fooled me. I made it fine until 3 blocks before the Holland tunnel. Best guess is milder version of blown engine a couple years ago. My local bike shop has mentioned to me how HD press-fits the flywheel on. Local shop says they have better way of Locking it on. I can’t remember if welding or line punch or whatever. When engine last rebuilt, I brought this up to HD. They just did it their usual way. So, I am assuming with flywheel shift came oil pump miss-timing. And lack of flow. Also, in middle of tunnel, error code P0113. Seems to be air temp sensor by intake. Went. Got off hwy in Basking Ridge, NJ as soon as I saw low pressure. Checked into nearest hotel. Courtyard by Marriott. Turns out there are a lot of pharmaceutical companies by here. People fly from all over world. So they get their piece of the drug money. With tax, room was over $400....and no breakfast included. At least my company will pay it. If they know what is good for them.
 
Andrew, hope you get the ride fixed soon and it goes OK....

Last weekend I stopped at the resort and they are looking forward to our trike rally. They run ads in the NY Post every week and said he was going to add the trike rally into the ad. There are still rooms available but we also have a few rooms that are now reserved for other guests.

Hopefully this weather pattern we are now in will clear out and the week of the rally is nice....we have a few weeks yet.
 
Just got the trike to shop this morning. Not optimistic of it being ready by rally. So hopefully dry and I will trailer up the 2-wheeler. Freakin' HD. Rebuilt engine only got 50k.
 
I think you are ready to step to a GOLDWING Andrew. They break in at 55,000 miles.

I also can't believe that it takes all summer to fix it. My machanic can rebuild a motor in 3 days .
