Good day fellow members . Not much under my belt just two SS1000's and a Bun Burner 1500 in 36 hours cert. I've been invited to a friends motorcycle mod party 1533 miles away on June 26th , and really kicking this can hard to make this run west from Houston Tx ( Sugar land actually ) .
My concerns are West Texas / NM / Arizona heat so looking to start in early evening to ride through the HOT zones in dark or early light am hours .
My mount is a reliable Gen 3 Triumph Tiger 1200 XCX ( off rd spoked wheel model )
Other than hydration , critters on rd at night what would you think that I might be missing ?
Also GPS im not planning to use as I know the route , and 95% of it is I-10 west bound . Going to print out the IBA paper forums , and photo every fuel stop with receipts / odometer .
Dreading the lack of a RDL seat though . The Hayabusa had my RDL , and it was the game changer .
