Default Leaveing for Stergis.

The question I have is will my Street Glide get me all the
way to Montana without too much trouble
I have installed lowers and a tour pack XM radio
for tunes.Being that I am 60ish have hiway
peg and back rest.I hope I have
thought it all out.
&nbsp\\;Now for keeping cool I got one of those hydration vest to try
for this trip.
Last time out west I rode my Valkyrie Interstate,so Harley
this is your test.

Just got back from a 4000 mile trip on my 07 street glide no promblems except needed to replace back tire other than that it ran perfect.&nbsp\\; averaged about 37 to 38 mpg unless the wind was behind us, at one time I got 49 mpg.&nbsp\\; It's a great ride, ride safe and have fun.
