I can’t visualize what you are describing. Are these a new set of points? I do know there has been quality issues with some Asian made points sold as...

Wow, that’s quite a prize to win! Congratulations and welcome to the ABC!

Just kinda a funny story on this topic. In 1997 I rode my ‘78 to Alaska and the Arctic Circle. In preparation for this epic adventure, I packed the mo...
