Could you estimate what the total cost of this trip was?
great pics, I love doing a long haul here and there, but need to slow it down and maybe less miles a day, I normally just go on them to get to a point B from Point A so i try and push myself with miles. But looks alot better to slow down a bit. My last trip was in june with 3200 miles in 3 and half days. Did 1008 miles the first day and never less than 900 miles the rest of the days.. Nothing like exploring the the country on 2 Wheels!

2002 black and blue hayabusa- (SOLD)
2000 ZX7R STREETFIGHTER-(SOLD)
Using rough figures I came up with about $2500 for 21 days
Lodging: 21 days * ~$70 a night = ~1500
Gas: 6600 miles / 45 MPG * $4.00 PG =~$600
Meals: ~$30 per day * 21 days = ~$600 I had breakfast at the hotel, a power bar for lunch, and a decent dinner.
Obviously, this is a ballpark figure.

And, thanks for the inspiration... this is a trip I'd love to do.

Holy hell, that's a serious bug tornado!
Seems like we're kindred "sport-touring" spirits, too bad we couldn't have hooked up for my ride this weekend.
Great pics! Hope the goat was ok when Jon was done.....

That's so awesome!

Pshaw! A measly 300/day. I did an average 530/day for the 3-1/2 days on Labor Day. Looks like an awesome trip though! (Well, except for the goat......)
