Did you have cell reception there? That's one thing that drove me crazy, we had to ride 15 mins down skyway just to use our phones. I would need a lot of breaks since it's a dirt bike seat.

Less than a 15 minute ride from the resort This is the cabin, found it on Airbnb

Only as far as Fontana Dam. No way I could sit on my bike all the way to Georgia.

Got back from deals gap Monday night, in the pouring rain. Overall a fantastic trip. No accidents or tickets. Nobody rode through naked. I didn't actually see a single cop all week. Managed to scrape peg on the dragon and do a small powerslide on hellbender. Will post more photos once I get them...

Good to know, thanks. That fits well with our plan.

1 ticket is not too bad. How was the police presence? I'm heading down on the 3rd.

Where are you staying? I'm hoping to go in August.

US and UK have a lot more bikes.

Pretty much all of this. I ride like an absolute *** sometimes, the bike just encourages it.

Sounds good, I'll plan for Sunday afternoon.

If it's a shorter ride I'm interested.

My Aprilia also calls for 75w90 but I use Maxima MTLR 80w instead. It's a popular alternative that provides good protection and smooth shifts. It's also cheap at around $11/L. I'm not one to waste oil but 12000kms seems like a lengthy interval. Maybe read up on what other owners are doing.

Which year is it? My 06 has been quite reliable, about $150 in unexpected repairs while I've owned it. Coolant expansion tank leaked and the driver's side door handle carrier broke. Both are known flaws. One brake light socket melted a bit but 5 mins with a soldering iron solved that. Still...

Yes, there is a set amount. I believe it's mostly dependent on the quality of the crude. "Sweet" crude yields more gasoline than "sour" crude, which mostly comes from the middle east. Refineries will typically maximise gasoline production at the expense of everything else because it's more...

Make sure the terminals are screwed down. You'd be surprised how often that's the culprit.

My mother owns a 2010 2.5i. I'm not impressed by it, but the car has been reliable. The interior is bland, gas mileage is not great, and the 6 speed feels mushy. It's reasonably comfortable and spacious though.

About 10-11L/100kms on my SXV. I prefer to measure in smiles per gallon!

Re: Kahuna going out of business? Here:

New? Maybe. Really depends on the condition of the bike. PM me the ad and I'll give you my thoughts.
