Steve, on a serious note....get north of Donie, Texas as soon as they are done working on your bike. If possible, leave there Monday afternoon, don't spend the night there.
Get as far north, towards your home, as you can Monday night, then find a comfortable place to stop Monday night. Get home on Tuesday....if you can.

Let's ALL send good thoughts in Steve's direction, and hopes that the buildings at TSC/DMC of Texas all stay planted on the ground today, as "former" Hurrican Beryl, now Tropical Storm Beryl, throws everything it has in the direction of Donie, Texas.
Steve should be there now, or...maybe just about ready to leave their shop at TSC/DMC of Texas, as the triple trees installation and front tire installation should have only taken about 4 hours all-in, so......Steve...git yer butt North as quickly as possible.

A whole new reality show! Are You Faster Than A Hurricane?!!!! Quick someone call Discovery Channel. I think we have a winner here!
On a serious note; Take care Steve. Safe travels home. Hope you enjoy the upgrade all the way back, staying ahead of the rains. 👍

- Steve's bike will be done at about 9am tomorrow. We had a late start today. Tripple trees on a 95 goldwing take me longer then 4 hrs. Bike had some bad bolts that had to be extracted and the typical issues with old plastics and fasteners.
Just got home guys i did the return trip in one day. The trees do make a difference the steering is much lighter it will twitch at the slightest movement. i can almost steer with fingertips, easier on the left hand than the right. The nice new tire makes a heck of a difference stopping that's for sure. Jon left the steering damper on but he suggested i might want to remove it and see if its better. The trip home was in hot sunshine, so the extra night staying did me a big favor
