That's what I thought, this IS a KZ forum and relay in which we hopefully are riding KZ's to transport the flag. Not picking on anyone, just making a point. Lots of guys had more comfortable bikes but they were riding KZ's because it's a KZ Relay. Again just my 2 cents.

Anyhoot, has anyone contacted Craig in No. Cal to see if that fits into the route for getting it down to So Cal... I'll call him to get him onto this post...

I can get it to Las Vegas from So Cal if there's a preference...

Stupid question here, is the Voyager considered a KZ?

No its a big touring bike like Wing. Great for long distance riding, No KZ though.


Think of as a poor wobbly cousin to a KZ1300.

My Voyager doesn't wobble.. :unsure: ...any more. It used to, but I fixed that. Steady as a rock now.

Slayer61,
It might be a couple more weeks, but your turn is coming. Where would you be able to ride to for a meet up with the flag? It would probably be with Toolmaker, coming south from Portland Oregon, maybe I might tag along if the routes right.

It sucks to have cancer. DAMHIKT. You'll survive and prosper,though. I know this too. You're in my thoughts and prayers. Hang tough.

The KZR forum is the very best. Thanks for all the kind thoughts and comments. Even though the medical community has given me the shaft in the past, I believe that this will pass given proper care and attention. My wife is also a cancer survivor and soon I will be as well. You know, now that I think about it... we DID have a HONDA :sick: in the garage a couple of years ago... maybe THAT is the root of our trouble! :lol:

Very sorry to here about your situation. Hope you get well soon. Maybe when the Flag is near. it can stop for a visit? Might help cheer you up a bit. I really have no Idea when/ where it may go next or with who. But we'll get it sorted. If possible it would be nice to have it stop off for a visit.
