Trip to Memphis
« on: April 14, 2015, 08:13:01 PM »
Next week I will be taking a trip from St Charles Mo. to Memphis for the Memphis Kings Dead Elvis 8 Track scooter rally. It is a 300 trip and I will being doing it in 2 day s. This is my first scooter trip, so any suggestions for riding on the Interstate?
 I have read a lot of different post about the speedometer inaccuracy. Different opinions about how bad it is. I would like a % so I can do quick mental corrections.
