Just our luck. First run out with him and we break down in the worst place for that to happen.......long island, NY.

No place to park a 75 feet car hauler and the rooms are outrages.

Got towed to a KW shop (we have a pete) but that is were Pete breakdown sent us.

Talked to the shop this morning and they dont have the part and cant get it till monday. We blow the tubor. so here we sit in wonderful Jamaica, NY.

going to the best western to get a room. did save a little money with my BW HD rewards card.

sorry to here for your troubles, if you ever break down near where I-77 and I-40 cross shoot me a pm. i can see that intersection from my house. if you can tolerate my little dog i'll put y'all up and even cook. few cool beer joints walking distance of the house too.

Yep,probably not the best place to break down.

Surely we have some members in the area to help a brother out?

I'm in the City. I have a pull-out couch for guests (hey, it's NYC - we live in tiny quarters). You're welcome to hang here. Just send me a PM with a contact number. I am heading out at 6pm tonight, but will be back around 10. Will check my PMs before and after.

Alright drum dog! The olive branch of assistance has been extended.

Again, anyone ever gets 50 or so miles close to VT/NH at the juncture where I-89 and I-91 intersect each other and need assistance...PM me. I got tools,trailers,trucks etc... No charge. Harley riders helping harley riders.

I broke down once right smack dab where I-95 goes through or by Harlem I believe, right around the GW bridge. I just pulled over on the large meduim and sat on my vehicle until it cooled off. I had many "wreckers" come by and offer me their assistance, I passed on the offers and a country boy did survive. Sure didn't like being there at all. Not one second, I'm not gonna lie.

Gald you okay and it's cool to see the support offered by others. I just wish all motorcyclist would off this kind of hospitality to all riders of all motorcycles; brand shouldn't matter.
