We managed to change the oil using help from some friends we made at Stfan' s place last night and are now trying to load up the bike and finally get a start. But like I said...getting started is the hardest part of the trip. Making matters seriously worse was the $600 Redverz tent especially designed for adventure tourers. First off..it is huge, even packed up, secondly it started tipping the bike backwards with its weight when we mounted it to the top box. There is NO WAY that tent is going with us!
