Perce to St, Quentin NB-June 27 14

 

On the road at 9am and headed west, along the way we decided to turn south into New Brunswick where we are this evening.

My bike seems to have a vibration that has me concerned. Yesterday while gassing up a Harley biker alerted me to a dragging chain guard….I had fixed this earlier in the day and thought the bolt had fallen out…no not this time, the metal bracket on the frame had cracked. The only fix was to remove it completely. Nothing obvious is the problem…..putting it on it’s centre stand and revving it seems okay but under load on the road it vibrates with strange sounds coming from the drive train ….let off on the gas and the noise disappears. I had it up to 130k and the vibration was all but gone…tire pressure is ok….tire look ok…..need to find a Suzuki dealer along the way.

Undecided whether to cross into Maine or pick up the trans Canada and head towards Edmundston NB………………...  departing the campground……………… great road running close to the water The train used to pass through all the coastal villages with it’s tracks snaking along the coast/////the line appears in great shape though it has not operated for some time.

Just could not resist a few more stops….the artist was pulling a wagon loaded with paint and touching them up.

Stopped for the night. This bmw pulled in the rider uses a walker…..

Diane, I have another 2 Rocks, one from the Atlantic and a small slice of the Chic Choc Mountains for you,,,,,,
