Re: North American Adventure
It was great visiting with another Delica fan in person. I really enjoyed having a real Delica parked outside my house! Thanks again and I hope that the rest of your trip is safe and enjoyable!

Re: North American Adventure
Well, I made it through Debby and enjoyed the Keys. Two very cool spots were Robbie's where you can feed the fish and The No Name Pub where they have over $200,000 in decorated $1 bills hanging from the ceiling!

Re: North American Adventure
The boxes are fully loaded, I have light camping equipment in the larger box and tools and parts in the smaller one. My mileage is anywhere from 10-14L/100km, with all the wind resistance I get really poor mileage going above 80km/hr but I get really good mileage driving around 70 and on flat roads (obviously I suppose). In actual fact the boxes on the front improve the fuel economy over just having the basket on the back because it acts as a wind deflector.

PLUS when the fold out Bat Wings unfurl from the Bat Boxes, roads become a non issue. "Where we're going we don't need roads..."nxski wrote: In actual fact the boxes on the front improve the fuel economy over just having the basket on the back because it acts as a wind deflector.
I need some more pics of the trip here! I am jones'in for more. Hope you are having a bit better luck with all the mech issues.

Last pictures from the USA and the first from Canada! I feel like I'm home again even though I'm on the other side of the country.
