You have to be older than dirt to know this one.

I may be older than dirt, but I use Ajax, so I'm also "Stronger than Dirt"

Thought about a TT popup when I retired then talked to many people about cost and upkeep and found out I
could buy a lot of motel and VRBO rooms for the same money.
Does the Givi replace the existing windscreen? Which model/product #?
D1130ST WINDSHIELD Product SKU: D1130ST
D1136ST SPECIFIC SCREEN Product SKU: D1136ST
TT is ok if stay under 20 feet and 3000 pounds. Upkeep is no problem, just like a car, house , ... on a very personal level as to how much. TT, RV,... unless you want to stay at the RV "hotels", the purpose is to see the world and that means staying off-grid as much as possible. "plug in to hotels" every 3-6 days for water, sewer, charge top off. But even that is not necessary as you can top off water and dump at many locations. I make my own power 95% of the time when traveling.
BTW, this thread became about music, one should start a new thread unless you want to be like RV forums - LOL. The only music is the sound (or lack of) from my Hondas!

I am of the humble opinion the best way to do the Going to the Sun road is from west to east.
Tempted to get a TT or an RV but the logic keeps going in circles. I think we'll avoid it.
Or it may be like how I got married. I chased her until she finally caught me.

The windshield I used was this one -

Works great.
I have used VRBO many times and have always had good luck.
Last one was a condo in Ashland Wi. and was just super nice.

I will be taking the PCX150 from the east and west ends on the GTTSR. The road has stringent limits or you will hit the rocks!
Pics of course when available.
21' max length, heck, my truck is 19' by its' self.

Its been a while again, but I am still here. I just checked and realized that I never posted pics from my trip out west. I used my "bike" way more than I ever expected - 800+ miles vs 150. I had a number of 100+ mile days. 'only way to see the national parks! It came in handy once in an emergency to repair the RV due to an idiot that lined the road with boulders! This could be a long post, but I'm just going to let the pictures speak. I wish I had my CB1100, but the PCX has way exceeded all of my expectations! Sometimes little brothers do not get the respect they should. 'hard to include or pick from the thousands of images taken, so here are a few. Enjoy
Best Forum on the web!
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!
