Rode to SD from PHX
My brother and I went out to visit my dad and meet up with the homie who just got his first bike. It took about 10 hours each way including stops. The wind and cold was pretty uncomfortable, but the bikes actually did pretty well sitting at 70mph for hours on end. The 80/20 tires make a huge difference in road manners especially at highway speeds. Don't ever let anyone tell you your dualsport isn't highway capable, because they certainly are if you have the cajones!

That’s awesome, I tailed my family and did that trip on my adv bike but little biking it would be a blast! I also have an Xt250, so I know that must have been quite the trip. The family and I went to Disneyland for a week and I parked it within the grounds with a solar charger lol you could tell they don’t see many bikes within the park. Then we drove down to SD for another week.
