So our last trip of any distance for the 2016 riding season is now behind us . We left home for the Allegehny Mntns. of PA early Friday morning. We rode to a local hotel and picked up another couple that was going with us. The weather could not have been better the entire weekend.

Spent the holiday weekend with kids and grand kids at Jay peak,vt taking in the foliage and the indoor water park. Rented a condo for a reasonable off season price and it was real nice.

She's an easy keeper, no troubles.

Being a New Englander this was a change for me from wide roads to small roads and lots of turns. We stayed in the center of the country and stopped in a lot of villages with castles and forts built in the early years from 1200-1700s, one castle was still up and running with a full milage inside of it where people had shops and keep the fields and did life like it use to be. G reat tour and everyone came home safe including the bikes!! We did make it to Spain border but we could only go in a few hundred feet do to the...

I do all servicing and repairs on my Kawasaki and Yamaha bikes. I am looking to buy either some diagnostic software or a scanner to complement my tools. Both the Kawasaki and the Yamaha have onboard diagnostics but I would like to have the ability to read sensor data and say operate the fuel pump etc. Any suggestions as to what is best? Thanks Joseph
