Thanks everyone for the words of wisdom.  We're back from the trip and it went great!  I will try to post a ride report with pics before I lose track of all the great things I learned!

Of course now I am in the midst of trying to get caught up on work....   Tongue

Monsters really aren't very good touring bikes, but that is just my opinion.

When I have road tripped, I used to take a duffle back, flip it upside down and attach the handles to the frame on the passenger seat, then zip tie it down.



It is pretty bootleg, I might be able to find a picture tomorrow.
