I think the participants just switch to a liquid diet for a few days.

Doesn't that take some of the "Adventure" out of Adventure Touring?

This set up maybe better, with a passenger, for when there's just no place to pull over. (It too works well for holding on in tight curves)....

So when some asshole refers to your beloved RS as "that piece of shit"....
then you can kindly show them "that piece of shit" ..... (drop a few chocolate bars in there for effect)....
then flip 'em the bird Jeff
Think a few bullet holes in the "potter" would be effective too....match the gas tank
PS: loved your youtube ride....

OSHA doesn't care if everyone on the highway gets killed there, EXCEPT for those who are on the clock.
Obviously, the usefulness of ME's device to an IronButt rider is very limited unless it is rotated 180 degrees and moved forward to replace the conventional solo seat on the bike. THEN you've got some real benefit. This would also leave room on the rear (pardon) for an auxiliary tank. I suppose some would not even need the larger tanks to find it beneficial, as this installation could allow one to fill and pay at the pump, and then continue on, never even having gotten off the bike, and thus never having to endure the service station restroom.
Certain wardrobe modifications would be required as well.

Ha, that'd be me mostly!
I've got quite a few videos now, some a little more fun than others.
