Nope longest day 985 miles on a DR650 with ZRXmitch whos a member here .
Had two fuel stops with no receipts , and your only allowed 1 so @985 on a stock saddle I called it quits . Many 800 / 900 mile days on the FJR , ZX11 , Hayabusa .
985 on a DR650 is impressive enough. I do my LD riding on a Road Sofa so my hat's off to you.
tejasbusa (Kevin) was (may still be) a factory rep for Suzuki. when his son graduated high school, Kevin bought him a SV1000 and they took off for Prudhoe Bay. There and back in something ridiculous like 11 or 12 days. When they got back to East Texas, the son dropped off at home and Kevin continued on to Key West and then back home. All on a 'busa... I hurt just thinking about it.We have another member that did an Alaska trip with his son some years back and I believe they were both on Busas for that trip. I want to say it was "tejasbusa". He's been here on TWT around 12 years now.
Will get you and Tianne up to Dallas sometime in the Spring when we get into a house.
I'll add more tonight by laptop key pad, but my pictures are easy to upload by phone. 44, and last son leaves for the USMC in June 2018. My wife also rides her own motorcycle on long distance trips.
Welcome, Bryan
I have a friend over in Sugar Land that also rides a busa. He goes by "c10" on most forums. Stay away from that Mitch guy. Nothing but trouble.
