Dave:

To prevent stings from bees, wasps, yellow jackets, and hornets:

Avoid flowering plants, gardens, and trees with ripe fruit, where bees spend their time.
        Although there is some vegetation... we're in a junkyard.
Do not use perfumes, scented soaps, or suntan lotion.
        WD-40 and Rotella will likely not attract bees, apply liberally.
Do not wear bright colors, flowered prints, or rough-textured fabrics (such as wool), all of which attract bees.
        You might need a bee keepers hat to cover that Q-tip.
Do not swat a bee or throw an object at a bee or wasp hive. Bees are more likely to attack if they feel threatened.
        'nuff said.
If caught in or near a swarm of bees or wasps, move away with slow, deliberate movements.
        Run like the 6 million dollar man.

Once you've been stung remove stinger and apply a gob of yellow mustard to area of sting , mustard will numb it ! So don't forget the mustard on your road trip ! And your 300 dollar Efipen !

You can mix a paste of powdered meat tenderizer and a little water.  Put the paste on the sting and it will draw out a lot of the venom.

I need to go there and find parts for my bike. Even though my bike is a Honda GL500, I have had very good luck mixing brand parts. After all, anyone remember my old Savage "The FireLizard"?

I'm not a chopper guy, but I like that.  Is that the same as an XL engine?

That engine is your typical Savage/S40 engine. Reworked a bit with a more aggressive cam and re-jetted carb.

When I had a 1993 Kawasaki Concours 1000, I found that it held 7.1 gallons of fuel...sure felt all that weight "up high" after running down to reserve (besides the fact that it was a tall bike to begin with).

I wish we had places like this around me. I could get lost in there for weeks.
