We just got home from Rolling Thunder XVIII in Washington, DC. and thought I'd pass this along.

The weather was the best I've seen in years for RT. Warm temps, mostly sunny, a slight breeze and only three drops of rain.

The turnout was huge. 23rd Street and Constitution Ave were packed with bikes and bikers waiting for the parade to start. Thunder Alley was no place for anybody in a hurry. Most of the vendors seemed to be smiling from ear to ear.

The parade from the Pentagon started exactly at 12:00 noon. Most of the time they rode two by two. Sometimes four across.

My bike doesn't want to go into nuetral when it gets warmed up. I can shut it off and it goes right into nuetral. help

I want to install a new clutch with more surface area on my 100 inch revtech custom bike. it has a 6 speed tranny. The parts books mention options that provide an additional friction plate and an additional steel plate. 7 and 9 as opposed to the stock 6 and 8. How does this work. The total thickness of all the plates would increase, no? Can I just replace the orig clutch with the new plates? Can I get all the stuff off thru the derby cover or do I have to remove the primary?
