I am still interested in this and still hope for more information from someone who has done it. It is easy to find a shipping company with a search, hard to know if people have good experiences with them. I looked for Bike Flight, all I find is www.bikeflights.com/ which deals with bicycles not motorcycles. I just looked at Citizenshipper, it is a bid aggregator. Submit a pickup and dropoff location, and then you get a bunch of quotes from whomever. In two hours I got four quotes and one request for more detail on my scheduling flexibility (all I am doing is hypotheticals, I can't be specific on shcedule). Not quite what I was hoping for (maybe it has changed in 3.5 years). Anyone use a specific company and have a good result?

I can't say for sure, but I very much *think* so. What I can say is that I installed older fj-09 case support brackets on my 2020 Tracer 900gt, and it worked perfectly with my 2020 gt cases.

pictures and further info on the bag liners?

Cool trip! that's the way to take a trip with the wife and kids! My one and only time in Florida (a moto trip reported on this forum in October 2019) I thought I never needed to see Florida again. But the Kennedy Space Center! That's pretty cool. I need to see Florida again. And yes, we're all jealous of @betoney. Even those of us that live in California but can't seem to get that many trips in.

Warwife?

It's odd that Yamaha admits the stock seat is uncomfortable.

Edelweiss Tours. I'll have to remember that to look into when I have the time ... Thanks for the story.

looking forward to seeing this bike!

What do ya'll do for theft security of the GPS? Just take it with you when you leave the bike? That would feel like a nuisance to me, but it is an obvious high value target.

I have a question on heated gear, like Gerbing heater jacket liners. Can you fold or stuff the gear into a bag (when not in use) without damaging the heating element wiring? It seems like the wiring would crimp and fail.

I only use it for when I accidentally put it in Mode B. Generally mine is in Standard.

Redline is just over 11k RPM. With some rounding, the stock gear ratios are about as follows Gear MPH/1000RPM 6 15 5 13 4 11.5 3 10 2 8 1 6 so you can get 100 MPH in 3rd gear at about 10k RPM. Or 100 MPH in 6th gear at about 6700 RPM. In 6th gear, 60 MPH would be ~60/15=4000 RPM. I don't think I've ever been at 100 MPH in 3rd, but certainly 4th, 5th and 6th.

I'd be too afeared of someone crashing my bike and suing me to ever rent it. but I'm glad the services are out there.

I lean to Sunday. I am trying to put together an outing to the SDSU Aztecs game Saturday for the opening of Snapdragon Stadium.
