Sounds like a good trip -- any highlights or must-sees worth mentioning? Also, what "extras" are you referring to? Magneto? Extra bolts? BTW, does anyone know what extra KLR parts should be brought on any long distance touring like this? thanks in advance, Dan in Pasadena '05 KLR650 '90 R100GS [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

the thermo-bob install

Hi all, On Saturday I installed the "Thermo-Bob" into (onto?) my '04. From start to finish I took 3 hours, but my tendency is to read then re-read the instructions, look at the appropriate area and Bill's well done diagrams/pictures, then READ again and THEN pick up a wrench and do it. Goes together pretty easily and looks good, altho' I haven't gone for a ride yet - that'll come tomorrow up the Apache Trail w/ a Canadian buddy who just showed up in Mesa, but I'm sure it'll work fine.
