Ironically Justin's tail light (an original '32 Ford) was jettisoned when he arrived back in ABQ. Unbelievable he circled back and found it with only some slight enhancements to it's already fine patina. I'm betting a Chinese repop would not have faired quite so well. Probably not the first 30's Ford tail light to rattle loose on that road.

Funny, that comment about the taillight. A friend of mine lost a gas cap from a 1930 Durant on a rough road like that. We looked for 30 minutes but never found it. A bit more rare than a 1932 Ford, even a gennie one.
Glad you had fun. Don't push it too hard...
Now that my jetting/timing is a little more spot on I think my bike would do 85-90 if I pushed it. No real interest in pushing it though. Justin has done close to 100 on his and they sound like they are geared the same. He has a fresh motor too.
