I have had my bike since last August now...a 2013 fz6r with 6000 miles on it. Planning a trip next month from Seattle to Santa Cruz. Any tips on taking such a long ride with this bike, either mechanical that I need.to take care of before the ride, or what tools, fluids I should carry with me, to how many hrs to ride daily..thinking 5-6 hrs 200-300 miles per day. Thx for any input. Btw, not only just bought this bike last August but started riding then as well at ripe young age of 55.
