I carry a piece of wire and connectors so if something goes wrong electrically I can jump from the battery direct to the coils and at least be able to run the motor. Dan

If you want a place to stay in the Davenport,Iowa area just PM Me. Dan

Thank you, Dan! I think my route will be north of davenport, along the south shore of Lake Superior.

Thank you, sir! My route is too far west of your location, heading south along skyline drive and Blueridge parkway.

Whaleman, excellent idea. Thanks.
