Well, you aren't planning on washing clothes, never worry about fuel, and never be thirsty on that trip.
You got everything except Granny and her rocker.
I'm really looking forward to your report during your trip (and the pics).

I think that you will find the trip to be much more comfortable if you add a tall windscreen. You can always change it back out later, but for the trip you will find it to be more comfortable and fuel efficient, as well as making your ride less exhausting.

Wow. Tell us more about your setup

Thanks, I like my dog too.

Good luck on your trip, you said you're starting the fourth -- less than week to go!

The other day I was resizing my picture on photobucket it worked on my laptop but today it's not working on ipad

Maddiedog I'm interested in how the big bore kit performs like top speed price and where you got it

The big bore kit performs well:
- Acceleration is ridiculously good compared to stock.
- Top speed with a new drive gear is about 5mph higher. The final drive gear makes the speedometer off, so I read top speed as around 65mph but am hitting just about 70mph actual.
- I still need more gearing, it has a lot of power at the top speed. I'm confident it will do 80mph, and cruise at 65mph, but won't know until I order another gearing kit.
- Way easier to maintain top speed, especially up hills.
- MPG drops to 75-85mpg depending on use. That lowers range a fair bit; I'm ALWAYS searching for a gas station.

I bought it from webike Japan, it cost around $500 including the camshaft (which I haven't installed yet).

I don't know if this is an adequate shot of the windscreen with the added piece on it, but it should give you an idea of its height. It works well. We decided to go ahead and get tall windscreens because I now have my own PCX 150 . The nice thing about this is that the extra piece is removable because it is not bolted into the plastic but rather the clamps press rubber pieces against the windscreen on both sides.
