P43-Hot

[Kherr]

Tonight was the first time since I got my P43 that it got wound up, and all I can say is holy hot! I had an issue with the igniter to start, and I ended up with a pile of pellets pouring out of the pot, which is entirely a different issue. I backed it down and let it catch up, then I wondered if I had an airflow issue. Nope. I cranked it up to 5 on the feed adjuster and 85 on temp. I am still in shock at the heat that poured out of thing, all the time with the pellets staying 1 inch from the end of the pot. I never thought I would say this, but... Bring on the cold, because I am sweating currently!

My daughter has the P43 cranking already...I thought it funny that she's got the heat on & I was riding the Ultra home from bowling. Then I got into the house & Susan had the P61A ripping...Temps are in the mid 30s here...

Still riding. Gonna ride to work today in fact. I am also the Patriot Guard Riders Lead Ride Captain for a combination Leatherstocking Honor Flight/Patriot Flight this Saturday at Oh-Dark-Thirty. I'll keep it in the garage & on the Battery Tender throughout the winter, just in case there's a chance to ride. Once the salt hits the roads tho, that's pretty much the end for me...

It has not been too cold here yet, but I have yet to turn on my heater. We had a wood stove and I have yet to miss the mess, and the constant babysitting. It was 80 in the house last night, and my wife thought it was perfect. That is too hot!

Kherr,
Congrats on the new P43, we just got one last weekend and think it is going to be a great stove!

Maniac,
Its Harman, not Harmon! and we've been keeping ours on 75 so far too, my wife's favorite temperature

Same with me...I will ride until the salt goes down, then I am done! Got a new 2013 Ultra Limited Thursday, and am hoping to get a few miles on it before I put it away. I belong to the PGR as well! Have only fired up the P43 for 2 nights so far though.
