Shouldn't be too bad though, I made it from 29 Palms, CA to Stafford, VA in 28 1/2 hours about a year and a half ago, in my '08 Ram 1500.....

It'll be a fun trip. I just realized what your forum name means. Thank you for your service and welcome home

Getting the RKC inspected after sitting for 3 years.

Putting some miles on the bike, riding in Dad's memory.

Very nice ride! ive just sold my 02 RK after 79,000 loving miles 😭lol and i been in your shoes my dad passed in 06 and left me a 93 Vulcan 1500 with 2000 miles and it hadnt been on the road in ten years! the bike was a mess not to mention it was a metric but it was my dads and i spent way more than it was worth rebuilding it simply cuz it gave me a way to be close to my dad! hope u enjoy many miles on ya scoot and enjoy spendin time wit ya dad! much respect!

Welcome from another Houstonian - new to the forums myself

Beautiful ride, looks like your Dad took great care of it - sorry it wasn't a happier circumstance to getting your first hawg and loss that goes with it. Be safe and happy riding!
