[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1190595, member: 19880"] I also had a Venture before I bought the FJR! I never tried a CT on that bike. A CT on the back with a rear MC tire on the front (reverse direction) is sometimes referred to as double-darksiding. I haven't heard of anyone doing it on the FJR. While my planned trip will be long, I don't think I am going to that extreme. From the responses I have seen on this thread, I SHOULD be able to make it with a new PR2, PR4GT or BT023GT as long as I keep total mileage to something less than 15,000 miles. If I find myself running out of front tire before I'm ready to come home, I'll try to arrange a tire drop-ship to a willing forum-ite (with a tire changer) and deal with it on the road. Otherwise, a dealer visit will be in order. My trip will include a lot of nice roads but also quite a bit of straight slab riding to get from one area to another. [/QUOTE]
