By golly, you've done it, and I haven't. I'd like to find someone who'd
be up for a trip to Alaska. I think the Guzzi would make it, but I'd
sure take some spare parts, cables, U-joint and bearing, etc.
Did you have any mechanical problems with that Beemer? Good looking
bike, even with all the dirt.

John, I don't see any reason why your bike couldn't make it. Guzzi'
aren't much dfferent than Beemers in respect to the drive train. As a
matter of fact I saw more of the newer type bikes broken down on the
side of the rode, Most of them were BMW's having computer malfunctions.
Thats what I like about my old airhead boxer.
I did have the output shaft bearing burnout on me, and had to cut my
trip short then limp into Skagway to take the Alaska Marine Hwy ferry
home, Although the trip was cut short I consider myself fortunate to
have been able to take the ride of a lifetime. So far anyway.
I'm going again next summer to finish the trip, and I'd be more than
happy to ride up with you.
Lots of Guzzi riders up my way too.

Where are you?
