I do, hes been on my bike since we rode the brp in Oct. I actually just took him off last week to fix my sticky throttle situation. He was zip tied to my right brush guard.

And here is your reason not to hit death valley

It would actually be cheaper to buy a gas can, fill that up, ride into death valley tapping the extra gas when you need it, then throwing the gas container away after.

One gas stop won't scare me off of it. I really want to be able to say I rode through it.

Bought a new set of Anakee 2s for the trip today. So new rubber for the ride, shouldn't have to change rubber the whole trip.

Word of advice on taking pics while you ride, I really like to wear the camera around my neck and set it down on the tank bag. Put some velcro on bottom and some on the tank bag so it's always in the same position. Very easy to reach down, grab it, turn it on and shoot that way....its always handy, even in a corner.

Yeah I got the lanyard for around the neck already, good call on the velcro though. Thanks.

Totally ordered my tires yesterday at 11am and they were on the porch today. Moto Superstore is fucking fast.
