Since we bought this boat last week, I have made a couple of trips to Cape May to work on the boat. My Wife had to go out of town so the Tag A Long trailer has been my pick up truck! Loaded her down pretty heavy this time. :shock:
13' folding extension ladder, 3 - 100' contractor grade garden hoses, 2 - 100' extension cords, loaded tool box, complete socket kit, circular saw, 3/8" drill, battery operated drill, portable work light, 1 canvas tarp, 2 poly tarps, radio, new 6 volt group 1 battery, and 1 battery charger. When I first headed off with the bike, the trailer tugged back at me for the first time. The Slug sure got a workout!
The knee is still an issue. I can ride as long as I do not attempt to push backwards on my right side. The ride (89 miles one way) was not as comfy as I am used to. Tough getting a good position for my leg without twisting. The highway boards that are mounted outside of my crash bars are in the way now. There is no chance of using them without hurting my knee (they will be up for sale if interested.)
Looks like I will be adding some ATF to the tank of this old girl! The carb needs a cleaning. It is a real cool updraft side mounted carb. Take a listen:
