Hello everyone! As of today, we have 90 registered! That's going to be a great turn out!
Just a reminder that rally registration closes on May 9 so that we can place our t-shirt order for the rally.
If you are coming, but have not sent in your registration, do it TODAY or TOMORROW!
After that, we will not accept any orders for t-shirts. We order a few extra of the most common sizes for the rally. You can only get what is available.
Have you all made your hotel reservations? If not, do it NOW! If our blocked rooms are full at Laquinta Inn, you'll have to find other lodging.
See you all soon!

Nails;
Here is the custom Voyager XII I was referring to. It is a little different than I described but is still quite the departure from stock.

Okay, I was expecting to hate it, but it actually looks kinda nice. Many clever ideas, well executed. Probably'd make a great commuting scooter.
But I have to wonder why anyone'd put that much money and work into it, to turn around and sell it cheap. Suspect there's something about it that he can't live with.

It does sort of grow on a person after looking at it.
I'm sure there are a lot of hours on the bike.
Yes it does sort of look like a beast and I think that was the idea.
Not my cup of tea but I bet it would be fun to ride for short commutes as you say.
To each their own I say,

Asphalt, the final frontier; these are the treks of the Kawasaki Voyager; its continuing mission to explore strange new roads, to seek out new sites, new bed & breakfasts, to boldly ride where no one has ridden before.

Yes, it does look sharp, interesting how he modified the false tank to cover spots for the fairing. With all that weight removed, I imagine it would be real sporty to tool around in. May be he's selling cheap, because he feels there is not much demand for such a bike.
