So... It looks like the regulator is bad. I didn't have a full charge on the battery. So it got to the start line and choked. headed back to the pits to charge the battery.

It was like my high school prom, all dressed up but no action.

So the plan tomorrow is to run total loss. I'll put the generator and charger in the back of the truck and charge the battery while waiting in line.

Which bike?  The blown 500, or "Lucky"?

Also, good luck today!  [thumbsup]

Lucky. I was thinking before I left that I should grab the regulator off the blower bike... But there were a lot of things I meant to bring.

It's a little after 10 on the salt flats, we have a full tank of fuel and a generator in the back of the truck. In about an hour we should be up to the front of the line and we'll hit it.

The salt is so bumpy on the access road it broke the fairing stay.

Welded back together. The trip to the combo course I'd shorter... Added weld gussets.

The first run was... Disappointing. That tune is so far from where it needs to be. 

It blattered up to about 60, and didn't want to go much faster.

I'm thinking way to rich. Threw in a bunch more fuel and it got worse. Took some out and keep blowing off the horizontal throttle body.
