[QUOTE="gixxerjasen, post: 970893, member: 20220"] Thanks! I think...erm. Really you can either make it easy or make it hard. Decide to ditch the slab and go back roads or find twisties...it's gonna take LONGER. Slowing for every town and stopping for every flashing red light, or slowing down for the twists...it all adds time. For the slab, there's PLENTY of time to get it all done. That's very important to understand. Another way to make it hard is bike choice. It's almost cheating on an FJR, and I presume an ST1300 would be darn near cheating too. You want to make it hard? Do it on a TW200. That'll be a heck of a thread for the advrider crew and yea, it'll be hard, but it'll be a real challenge. I say, if you are just doing it once or want to check it out, cheat and do it the easy way. Slab, well rested, well planned, right bike, stop when you need to, and pay attention to your condition both physically and mentally. Do those things and you will find that the hard part is writing the check and sending off your paperwork. :blink: Holy ****! That's fodder for my nightmares tonight. I'll blame my lack of sleep on YOU!!! [/QUOTE]
