Ross,
MN to NC on a Monster? Cool, let me know how that goes, take some pics. There is something about distance riding on a bike that was not really intended for it that is interesting and adventurous to me, even if its confined to asphalt. My brother (Buell XB9SX) and I just did a 700 mile 2 day that worked out great. I'd like to do a 3 day before the summer is out.
