Good luck on your trip.

I have, with my brother, just finished a "round the world" trip on our XT660r. We did some modifications, if interested pls. look at our blog side http://sverrirt.blog.is. or www.rtw.is

There is mixed feeling from different people about the moose, some people have used it and found it didnt do any thing apart from cause a mess on the inside of there tyre, other have used it and it work perfectly.
