So I must make sure to keep this on track and updated........ I really must.
The bike is 90% ready for the IBR as August is getting close. I have to ride to Brisbane later this week for a photo shoot for GetRouted.com.au who are shipping my bike to the US. Dave will use it for marketing as he is one of my sponsors helping me defray some of the shipping costs with a most excellent price. There is still room for more bikes should anyone want to come ride the US, costs are quite reasonable a bike my size is $2950 from memory but check that.
Aux fuel tank is done and tested, I altered the overflow today as the bulkhead fitting for it was reaching down inside the tank too far and I was unable to completely fill the tank, should be good for 20litres now. Plus changed the braided overflow line to normal rubber fuel line so it doesn't damage my bike where it touches on its way out the rear of the bike as per regs.
I have the Garmin Street Pilot 2730 from the US with US maps, this will be my routing GPS and my Garmin Quest ever faithful (damaged it when it went flying on the way to St George recently but works still) will be for my overall data and stats.
Driving light brackets are being made by Glenn my mate in WA so when they arrive the Hella FF50's will go on. I wanted HID's but lack of $$$$'s stopped that.
Checking on how I will handle the mobile phone now, get one when I get there or who knows.
Looks like I will fly into LA and drive up to Portland where my bike will be.
About all for now but will endevour to update weekly at least.
