2,600 Mi. trip on my FZR6

Post by Kyle844 »

Hey guys,
This Saturday I plan to travel from the rainy, depressing, Pacific Northwest to the Grand Canyon!! :headbang:
It's about 1,300mi one way and should take around 20 hrs. I'm pretty excited, went through and checked all fluids, lubed everything, made a few adjustments, put a new BT-21 rear tire on and I feel like I'll be ready to go! Me and my dad are going to do the trip, me on my FZR and he has a Harley sportster. I plan to have my tankbag, backpack, and attach a backpack onto the back seat for my journey. I'm pretty excited! Did i mention we only have a week to do it? So we'll be averaging 3-400 miles a day each day. There goes any chance of me having kids.... :headscratch:
