Ahh yes, beautiful rack. I had forgotten what it looked like.

Thanks guys.

If you come to a fork in the road, take it!

Nah. As long as it's black, style is ok. Cool

RE: Wearing an Overall
I understand the roadcrafter is an outstanding piece of gear, wonderfully engineered and crafted but I just can't wrap my head around wearing coveralls when it's over 75 degrees. Just a mental thing for me. Just like I can't wrap my head around a 650 twin being big enough to transverse the country on. They tell me they will do it just fine, it just doesn't seem feasible to me.

RE: Wearing an Overall
Can't wrap my head around the price. The entire set up, boots to helmet, should come in under $1k. Most of that goes for helmet, boots and gloves. Less than $200 for a jacket and under $100 for pants is where my budget is.

Read a thread on an Aussie forum this week about a bloke who did 14,000 + kms around the middle and east of Australia on a 250 dirt bike.

There was a couple years ago I recall that rode around the world on a 250cc if memory serves me.

Yeah, but aren't I supposed to check the forum while I have coffee?

Edit: Now it's petrol and a sandwich.
