I agree . I do carry a few tools with me as I scoot around Alaska . They knew I was coming up this Saturday so it was no big deal getting the bike to me although still cold out and expecting snow this Sunday again so the nearest bike ride is still a few weeks away , maybe sooner .

I have a fairly large trailer from tractor supply with a ramp that doubles as a tailgate. I had to remove it and fab up a permanent mount to secure a ramp that has to come with me from now on. Cool ain't free baby!!!

Thumbs up skin

Hello from Valdez. I've never had that long a pipe on my rigs but had Fishtails that stuck out past the rear fender 4 or 5" and over the years and they collected skin off my shins quite a few times. Usually when packing the bike and before putting on riding gear. Come to think of it duct tape had to come to the rescue of rain gear a few times to. Sure liked the sound though.
