Hello everyone! As of today, we have 90 registered! That's going to be a great turn out!
Just a reminder that rally registration closes on May 9 so that we can place our t-shirt order for the rally.
If you are coming, but have not sent in your registration, do it TODAY or TOMORROW!
After that, we will not accept any orders for t-shirts. We order a few extra of the most common sizes for the rally. You can only get what is available.
Have you all made your hotel reservations? If not, do it NOW! If our blocked rooms are full at Laquinta Inn, you'll have to find other lodging.
See you all soon!

Re: Synchronizing the Carburetors
If your XII idles rough or or won't idle below 800rpm's takes off & hiccups, mileage is less than 35mpg, If it does not run smooth at 4500rpm's in neutral. exhaust burbbles and pops. exhausts manifold pipes vary in temp by 25 + degrees. It could need sync, but not a real problem with the XII. You can do more damage trying to sync them than leaving them alone, if it is running smooth now. imho.
