Sure hope you guys take some video. Fred and you always have great video. Love your bag on the rear seat. Thought about trying to haul a golf bag inside a travel bag across the rear seat. I think it would also make a great back rest. Want to make a trip to Colorado to play golf with my brother. Have a great trip Lamont.

If y'all's route takes you through Houston/San Antonio, we'd love to set up some sort of meet with you and Fred. When y'all finalize the route let us Texas folks know along with an estimated time table.

Oh my, wouldn't that be neat! Unfortunately work starts next week on our vintage motorcycle show, and our club rally. Besides, I'd have to trailer the darned thing out of this snow. I'll have to be content to dream of what could have been. Thanks for the swell invitation.

Traveling light (on a bike) heads up.
UPS some clean clothes to your destination. UPS the old stuff back. I don't stop and wash undies..usually just go by a Walmart and bye new ones. Cheaper and much quicker.

Chances are the referenced post is positive in nature, may result in a solution, alteration, modification, or highlights an extraordinary event or ride, that's worth posting.

Have a great ride and be safe. Can't wait to hear both of your opinions about the RT-S. Your opinions are so valued on this site, I know I need to hear them. There is a Orbital Blue coming in the next couple of months at my dealer and I got first crack at it. My biggest concern is maintenance cost per scheduled visit. I realize each dealer is different and the one I go to has treated me like gold, what is your estimate on scheduled maintenance per year? I will drive mine a lot, might even be my main means of transport, avg. yearly driving is about 12,000 miles. But with this ride my wife and I want to do more traveling. Thanks for your thoughts and anyone else whom would like to chime in.

I can't say for sure. Fred and Ken have more miles than I do and I think Ken keeps really good records of all that stuff.
