    The first time I heard about UTI was Jim Bauer talking about his mom getting one. It might have been his mother in law. Listening to Opie and Anthony on Sirius while hauling crude oil in West Texas. His mom never recovered completely. They didn't realize what it was quickly enough.

    THE TRUCK HAS STOPPED!!!!!!

    STOPPED AT AN INDIGENOUS FLYING J!!!!!!! BECAUSE FLYING J IS GREAT!!!!!!!!

    We're topping off on indigenous fuel before entering The Pennsylvania.

    This is another indigenous 30. Lost track of how many already.

    Some of you, probably not okiedokie or Opus, will notice the white #### on the ground. It probably could be safely assumed we are not at The Casa Del OM.

    I got mine used as well, it is a peace officer shrine edition. Cop that bought it new ran it for 30,000 kms when the tensioners grenaded and she ate her pigs. I had a buddy that worked at Gasoline Alley HD in Red Deer and was on the lookout for an 02 that I wanted and this one came in on trade with the blown motor. Bought it for cheap and he built the engine for me, did the SE 95" kit, with ported factory heads, 205 cams, and hi compression pop top pistons. Put the SE race tuner on it and had it dyno'd there with a conservative tune and it made 93hp and 100 ft/lbs. With the single pipe and different cams he had it up to 100/120 but I went back to rinehart duals (looks better) and a bit better longevity for 2 up touring. Motor hasn't been touched since but pretty much everything else has been gone through as of 2021. Great bike, this is from the Top Of The World Highway in Alaska in '22.

    You weren’t standing in the middle of said “highway” when you took that picture, were you? :biggrin_25523:

    I hear some parts of that road aren’t paved. :D

    Yes Sir! I had some knee surgery on the second of December and am just now not suffering constant pain. Doc said nothing to it it, would be sore for a few days. Thing has really hurt me. I am not a believer in snake oil and potions of the like, but a woman told me to get some frankensence and put on a couple times a day. I am not joking it helped tremendously!

    Nah was on a little roadside deal. The only pavement is about ten miles leading up to the border from the US side.

    I had one done in 2010 and worked out great. No more problems. It did take me a full year to get back to where I was before the surgery.
