Well it finally happened. Thanks to Big Pappa and others, I finally got my Rock (acutally my butt) to handle a 2500 mile tour. My kids and I started in NJ and ended up in western NC. Taking the SkyLine Drive and Blue Ridge all the way. That road is great especially in the August heat. But let me go over the changes I made in order to do it without butt ache:
1. Changed out the Rockster bars for the Roadster bars.
2. Lowered pegs.
3. Sargant seat - wow!
4. First Gear Mesh-Tex 2 jacket for the heat.
If I had been able to get this done in June, I would have left the Harley home and taken the Rock to NM, that's how comfortable it is now, and without any windshield.
I finally got my range up over 200 miles per tank. Now I'm flying!!
Again, thanks for the feedback.
