Hey STing, big congrats on your accomplishment.
About 2 years ago I was involved in a pretty severe motorcycle accident that required 9 surgeries, a month lodging in the hospital, and 5 more months in a wheelchair at home recovering. The day I was given the "all clear" I ordered the parts needed to fix the bike, got her running, and planned a ss1000.
My better half decided she wanted in on the action too. So we head off 2up. We got just around 600 miles in 12 hours when she called me on the intercom and said she couldn't continue due to severe back pain. So we stopped and got a room, slept for a few hours and headed home. We did the thousand miles, but in a total of 30 hours . Oh, forgot to mention that was on a Honda cbr600f4i.
Now, you've gone and got that bug biting me again to attempt it, but on my st1300. Should be a breeze compared to the cbr which only holds a little over 4 gallons. We'll see if she will join me or let me fly solo.
Thanks for the inspiration, and congratulations.
