All paved now, both the Alcan and Cassiar. Taylor highway to Top of the World still has 30 miles of gravel. Only one more Hyder run done by the Washington and Oregon clubs that I know of . A group of us from Anchorage met a group from Alberta in Hyder a few years back. So it seems every 5 years...
My roadster, made flat side panels and chopped sides off the seat so I could get both feet flat on the ground. Lemans 4 tank added some fuel capacity. Love riding this bike .2000 Jackal.
Bill, I have the MI risers with the hand guards I got from Dan. Big improvement! I like the more relaxed position. The cables are all stock with no restrictions. The guards do make it difficult to lock the steering, I will see if I can compensate. Glad to have them though, hands stay warm and...
I realized today while doing some maintenance, before I dropped my motor out of the frame I removed the alternator and timing cover. Probably why I had the extra room.
Might as well keep an eye on this forum;

SBaker, whatever you choose you will need a tire change when you get here. I would make arrangements to put more aggressive tires on when you get up here. July and August are typically rainy making the mud roads hell. Try to get a good long range forecast. The only bad roads these days are the...
Sorry to hear it, when me and Dave Pazar (Rodekyll) did mine we were able to simply drop the motor without removing tranny. Dont know why yours was different(did you remove the front mounts?). Same on the install just jacked up and bolted on. It took a little wiggling but we got it back together.
Yes that's what I did, I put a jack under it to lower the motor. A friend helped me put it on my workbench. If you put the bike on its centerstand you will have lots of room. I did it on the work table off its centerstand and still had plenty of room to work.
I had to pull my engine for an oil pump failure that scorched a bearing. It wasn't very hard and gave good access to the clutch plates which I inspected while there. I left the transmission in place. Take care reattaching breather line, I cut the miniscule o-ring and had a nice gusher.

Matt
Brian, I have the Goldwing pegs on my Norge. they lower your feet about 3/4 inch. The left peg rides on the side stand when it is retracted, other than that they are wider so you have a little wiggle room. I like them.
The only puller I needed was for the belt pulley, after unbolting the others came off by hand. You have to do this to get the chain off before you can yank the pump. Just line up the gear marks before removing cam and crank gears. It all goes back together easy.
