LEAVING LAS VEGAS!!!!!

We got to spend a week in Las Vegas after arriving from the trip south...Funny, when we got into town, two groups of friends from the island were in Las Vegas. I got to visit with Jackie and Lyle who were in town for a week, and got to visit with Ron and Barb at Chrissy and Ryans house (they had a party on the patio!!!!0

We had our motorhome parked outside Steve and Jackie Hesse's house. They are gracious hosts who share everything they have....

Jackie and I enjoying margarita's in the hot tub!!! Rough life. Many thanks to all my friends in Las Vegas for the hospitality. And so great to see our northern friends down south as well.
And, when we left Las Vegas we got about a hour and a half from there (just past Searchlite NV) and my bike decided that she was tired and didn't want to run anymore!!!! What the heck????
Yup, no charging system anymore..... There were some really nice views along the way though....

But after taking 12 hours to do a 5 hour run, we were ready for some sleep. My old girl would run for about 80 miles and then cough and sputter and then die. Well what do you do when your in the middle of the desert miles from any civilization? You wait for the big guy in the RV towing the truck to catch up and then you charge your bike from the truck battery of course!!! LOL

Yup 12 hours....and yes we are laughing, NOW! tee hee

Talked with my guy in Coombs and after some testing, I have either no regulator or no stator, or both...So lucky for me, I met a gal in the RV park here in beautiful sunny Scottsdale that rides. She gave me the name of a guy in Tempe who worked for HD for 8 years and has opened his own shop....

So, my girl is in the hospital for Harleys right now. She should be out early next week....glad to say that parts are cheaper here for sure!!!!
