Cross USA Question
I live near NYC and I am thinking about going on a cross USA on my FZR600...
I know that I need to do periodic maintenance recommanded by owner's
manual that I check/replace/fix/etc...
1) emission(spark ;lugs, crakcase breather system, fuel line, exhaust
system, carburetor sync, idel speed) every 3,800 miles.
2) engine oil, air, cooling, brake, clutch, cables, side stand & front
fort every 3,800 miles.
3) oil drive chain every 300 miles...
Has anyone out there has venture on long journey on a bike? What are my
options?
I was planning on making a reservation with Yamaha shop somewhere around
Denver(midway) to stop and check my bike on the way to CA and return.
Thank you in advance...

Saddlebags are Wolfman Hi-pipes, and I was gone for a mere ten days, to me,
making it all the more remarkable on how much hiking, chatting with locals,
and drinking I did in addition to hammering the roads of the west.
Later!
