i do want to do the whole trip, but my prof bumped up my graduation date to December and that means i have to really bust ass to get out, rumor has it he is leaving and is trying to get his grad students out by December because he is looking to switch colleges and doesnt want to leave us with out a prof if he does leave, I had to take three weeks off of bar tending to get my studies inline to take my comps tomorrow and will be startting my acute glochidia tox assasys next week, so another week without work... shit sucks, but ill be out sooner and headed to knoxville by the beginning of the year hopefully

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 http://jalopnik.com/#!5786422/death-...ll-your-wallet 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.
