Thank you for the thoughts.

Off topic BUUUTTT. I go to the UP in the summer to ride the UTV trails but would like to stop in Northern Wisconsin for a week. Any suggestions for the best trail system and lodging. We ride a Yamaha YXZ1000r and like the trails used by the snowmobile guys in the winter. The YXZ needs trails...

I am sure it is just me because it is a beautifully engineered bike. I may need to downsize both my bikes and adventures greatly. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

73 and the trouble is I am starting to feel 73. Going to Chile next month to ride to Tierra del Fuego. Gotta narrow down that bucket list.

Did Deadhorse one time solo and one time two up. Both times on a FJR 1300. Piece of cake. More pavement every year. Now Inuvik ---- That sounds like fun.
