05-25-2008, 10:06 AMWas pondering which would make a cross-country trip easier and more comfortable , but I am stuck with the possible dillema that both would kinda suck big time ? Both are extremely reliable motorcycles , and both have about as much class I suppose depending on your opinion of motorcycles I suppose too ? I think the Harley will hold more fuel with my new Fat Bob tank , but the SUNL 125 XT does get good gas mileage ? I know I could pick up more babes with the SUNL 125 XT , but my Fiance' would probably frown on that idea ? :biggrin:
My sleeping bag is bigger than the whole SUNL 125 XT too , a major distraction for cross-country trekking I guess ? I could always jsut wear the sleeping bag , cut holes in the top for my arms to stick out of and leg holes I guess too ? Maybe the Harley would be better for the trip , at least I could get parts if it broke :thumbup: Although if I was in Texas I could stop in at ATV Discounters and steal them off the showroom bikes while nobody was looking ? Hmmm, what a dilemma ?
Hers some pics, you decide which one you'd take on the trek .
The SUNL 125 XT , without Maglight attached to handlebars with Ductape for road trips .
Or the Iron Head Harley Davidson 1100cc . These pics are prior to my rebuild and custom mods , plain jane here .
Now, which one should I take on the trip ? I could always strap the SUNL 125 XT on my back on the Harley and call myself an Enduro :thumbup:
Ok, is this a non-sense and innapprpriate but unoffensive enough threade to post here :thumbup:
Cheers, Snortin Norton out !
PS, the track work is going great at our place , anyone that ever comes our way is welcome to ride here and have some good food too !Last edited by Snortin Norton; 05-25-2008 at 10:36 AM. Reason: This Jerk can't spell and I am an ass-hole

05-25-2008, 10:24 AMHmmm Crazy Carl ? That depends if the gas prices go up anymore I think ?
Good grief :thumbdown:
How much is it in China now, for Super unleaded if you can even get it ?
How many miles is my trip ? And how long of a trip ?
Ideally I would say FOREVER on both !!!!!
I see you moved my post . It is good to be King isnt it . Ha ha

Regular 90 octane is now about 5RMB a liter. I don't actually check the 97octane but I'm guessing it's over 6.
More than a couple people on here can move threads but this is a thread talking about preparing for a trip and figured this is the Trip Prep forum.

You ever read Henry V? :biggrin:

RMB is RenMinBi which is the Chinese currency and is now ~7:1 US. 5RMB is about 70 cents USD per liter so you're talking about 2.80 to 3.00USD per US gallon.
On a 150 or 200cc, you can cover some distance for not too much money!
