I'm heading to kansas for my best friends wedding and decided to make it a bike trip. On sunday I rode from Clearwater, FL ( my home ) to Mobile, Alabama ( where I work ) 651 miles from my apartment in FL to my place in AL. Took me a about 7 hours. Wednsday afternoon Im getting back on the road from Mobile, AL to Garden City, KS apx 1100 miles.
How long do yall think it will take?
I'm figuring if i leave AL between 12-3pm I can get 600 miles before 9pm. Stop for the night. Start riding again about 5am. I can be sitting back with a 40oz by 4pm thursday.
My biggest concern is gonna be with my tires.. Right now Ive got a 180 pilot on the rear and whatever stock tire on front. The front tire is great. Despite me riding the **** out of it. It still shows no sign of wear. i can tell that the rear is gonna need to be replaced when I get there. Does anyone know of a good highway tire for the RR? I'll use the pilot there. But id like to get something that will last for a bit on the way back and not flatten out so much.
Any other good advice?
