Nice few shots of the ADV1! I'd like to see Ryan examine that 60/40 ratio tho, is it accurate, or should it be 65/35, 55/45, somewhere in between? What's the science tell us??

Hey, Gabe! Welcome to the Pasq ADV1 Trailer forum(s)! By your avatar pic, you're in the CO area, or were you just passing thru there? Have you gotten your ADV1 yet?

Went on it hauling the ADV1. Fourteen hardy (for CA) riders, another two joined enroute. Temps were a consistent 46 degrees F. Made me realize that Hippo Hands are a requirement after Thanksgiving. Easily half a dozen riders were curious about handling, overall weight, etc. They were impressed...

Paging @Tony D. to the white courtesy phone.... I'm limited by the fact that I drive my wife to work M-T-Th, which cuts into my available riding time, but she retires next June so I'll be much more available for laying down the miles. When I was a young-un, I hitchhiked from upstate NY to...

"Distance" is such an ephemeral word, are we discussing tens, hundreds, or even thousands of miles?

Right-side bobbin removed, slagged plastic blocking removal of three screws. If possible & available, could a bobbin cover, three screws, and a cotter pin be sent to me? Bill me if necessary, etc??

I got a text from Ray Lott, my exhaust extension has been shipped as of this morning, anticipate arrival by Friday. I asked what else Mr. Dowell had in inventory and Ray said that there were quite a few extensions for older bikes, if that's of interest. Can you send a replacement bobbin cover...

You have my deepest sympathies. In other news, Led Zeppelin has released a new Live EP and a 50th anniversary deluxe edition of their iconic double-album, Physical Graffiti, on September 12 via Rhino.

Bonzo FTW, every time, all the time.

Rod, from the absolute VOLUME of posts I've put on this board, you should understand that I'm a chatterbox par excellence. ;-) I was introverted until I found out that's not as much fun as having conversations with people, and if you get any calls from California, they're either from Tony or me...

I probably overstepped here, but this is the text of the letter that accompanied the check: Dear Ms. LaMothe, I and many others in the motorcycling community extend our deepest sympathies and condolences on the passing of your father, Mr. Dowell. My association with him was limited to a...

New process for obtaining Mr. Dowell's items - work with Ms Shelby LaMothe, daughter of Mr. Dowell - 1) Contact Mr. Raymond Lott - ryltt03@gmail.com (that's Romeo-Yankee-Lima-Tango-Tango-Zero-Three) to determine what you need, he'll figure out if it's in stock or needs to be made, he'll use...

I just got a phone message from Raymond Lott, a friend & customer of Tom Dowell. He wanted to know that he can look for & hopefully find & let me purchase the exhaust extension for my bike in about a week, given access to the shop. He's a rider with a bunch of bikes, BMWs, HDs, etc., and I...
