Good idea? Bad idea? I'm mainly concerned with the possibilites of A) crashing or B) breaking down. I have done quite a bit of work on bikes, but since this bike is (seems to be) very reliable, I haven't actually done any work on it but replacing oil and brake pads and whatnot so I don't really know my way around it.
What I'm considering is probably up to 1000 miles one way, 3 day time frame 2 weeks from now.
My backup plan for something bad is getting a uhaul or something and trucking back that way. I figure with a good toolkit and good route planning I shouldn't have a problem.
I would say as long as some one knows where you are going, when you should get there, the route you plan to take and you stay in contact with them you would be pretty safe... Best to make sure someone knows all that I would think... just in case... Have a good trip
where are you planing to go?? maybe you can set a meet up with some SBN members in each state err whatever.....so they can ride with you for awhile if ya ride in utah or AZ im down
GO! When I have the opportunity to take a road trip I am GONE! Nothing like being away from your every day surroundings! Don't get too comfortable & surpass your limits! And don't forget to take a camera.
I can't see any problem with a 1000 mile ride on an 2000 Hayabusa, except for maybe getting a speeding ticket.
