    Took the "dog paddle" mirrors off and put Keystone Platinum Series power adjustable tow mirrors on.

    Making a cold water "humidifier" for the air box, using a cheap universal windshield washer pump and the spray tips that come with it. Put ice and water in there before setting out on the Florida run. I was thinking it could hold a 50%-50% water-methanol mix and spray that into the air box intake as well. Time for experimentation.

    It will be going into the bottom of the air box before the oil / cotton gauze air filter, not a "direct injection" to give the engine a higher than ambient humidity. I used to dump a large amount of ice down in there before setting out on a long trip to let cooled air flow into the air filter, the excess water would drain out a hole in the bottom of the air box.
