If you go up north in Ontario you will find that gas stations are sparse and many close at 6pm. I don't need to worry about fill-ups every 90 minutes or so.
This is what i've worried about. A few years ago I drove through Northern Ontario in a car and remember some close calls for fuel as gas stations were all closed! (albeit we drove through the night, which is not something i would do on a motorcycle).
It's somewhat relieving to know how far you guys have gone with similar bikes.
Thanks for all the responses!
