I had a butchers at your site and wow it looks and sounds fantastic, very best wishes for your trip!!! I would agree with one of the posts here that I would consider a suspension update, expensive but probably the best mod you can make to your bike. The Ohlins looks really worth it in terms of comfort and hey you will have some hours in the saddle!!! Good luck and best wishes, Simon
