OK...Clean oil, filters, new plugs a 2 coats fresh Wax and setting in the garage loaded. All I have to do in the morning is tie one case were passenger would set and check the oil and kick the tires as every things has ready. Target is Dothan, AL for a good night sleep after checking the Trike out. This will be my first long trip in almost 35 years and a real test for my Honda Silver Wing with Voyager kit. I will try to get some pictures on the way with my iphone and send them to Alley to post.

Ok Mike, just take your time and don't rush it. When you stop for gas take a rest yourself. Man now that is a nice trip, good luck and I know you will keep in touch with me. Alleyoop

Well I have not heard from him, and I checked the weather map and he has dry days to Oklahoma so no rain anywhere near him. Alleyoop

OK Troops, Mike just called me he made it in Yesterday at 8:00pm. He said he just wanted to get there and just cranked doing 80mph most of the time(HEHE). The Scoot worked flawlessly and he enjoyed and loves the way the trike handled. It was also comfortable and no fatigue whatsoever. He said Yesterday to finish and get there he rode 586 miles and got there at 8:00 pm all total almost 1300 miles.
He is staying with one of his relatives which have a house on a mountain so he is going to send me a couple of pics from the front porch. He plans to stay there about a month and maybe come back later next month. Alleyoop

Thanks Alley!!! Well it was 526 Monday and yes was a good trip and I can say the Silver Wing and Voyager is a perfect match. I expected Monkey Butt and back aches and arms hurting but none... I did have a close call with a deer on US 84 at around 12:40 and decided it was time to try the Interstates... I have never in my life taken a bike or a scoot on the Freeway before...Well, Hello 80 miles an hour... No deer as there ware others on the road as I some times did not see another car on the other route for 20 minutes or more. I am tired I will say that and I have a cold, in all that heat and I get a cold... Off to send Al a couple pictures off the front porch...what a sight!!
Yes I have a iphone but I am not one to even think of picture in all that heat... Now to figure out how to send them to Al... Old Magoo is not a phone man..

You could always email or text them to ally. Just go to camera roll, pick a photo touch the arrow and the iphone basically will tell you what to do. Make sure your data is on... Or if you have a computer w/ internet available, use your app program on your iphone and download "USB Photo" directly onto the iphone. Connect the iphone to the computer (You don't need iTunes on the computer) and start up USB Photo on the phone. Go to "my Computer" and you'll see the iphone as a removable drive. Click the iphone through the files until you see the pics, and you should be able to take it from there...
BTW-- Sounded like you had a good time!! Although I thought I heard some coughing a little while ago. Was that you??? Better take care of that, LOL.

glad to hear your'e safe little magoo!.... we want to see how a proud owner of a Silverwing with trike kit voyager thingy's face looks like... i want to know if you really have a huge nose., with hat and no teeth. thank you for proving to KZ that Honda(japanese made) is the best two wheeled vehicle there is..he must be so embarassed now with all his claims that chinese scooters are better than japanese scoots...hahaha! chinese scoot on the interstate??? nah i don't think so..LOL! i toldy, deer is your no.1 obstacle on those areas..stay safe... here's a tip: crush one head of garlic and rub the juice all over your exposed skin and some to the surface of your scooter and to your riding jacket, deer and bear hate the smeel of garlic they will stay away from you,you can chase them out actually,they will run away from you. anyway, we are all(especially KZ) looking forward to see pics of you and your silver bling!...stay safe out there.
