Re:Hi good people 4 Years, 1 Month ago  
You do know there is a weight limit? With all that on the bike you would have to weigh in about 100lbs. Ever heard of "Pack light"?
Seriously, Welcome to the clinic. A couple of things for you to look at. If you belong to Star Touring, they are having a BBQ in Vegas this weekend. If you would like to go to a meet & greet with RSC members, there are a couple going on this summer, one is East coast, one Midwest and one West coast.

I am a Star Touring and Riding member, and just joined up with a local chapter last week in Boise. I cant make it to any of the events youve listed, but am looking forward to going to the Star Days Rally in Billings this summer with them. Any other RSC member going to be there?
