It's relatively simple. http://www.vstrom.info/Smf/index.php/topic,11603.0.html best of luck! Perhaps you’ve read this, but you never did mention that the dealers did a fuel flow test.

I'm wondering if it's going to snow this weekend to go knock out a few dams in the Dam Tour and spend the night from home. You guys are definitely in the middle of an adventure you're going to look back fondly on. Ride well! Wow, some serious perspective.

Congrats on the tenacity to keep it all together on your adventure despite many challenges. I think the ferry ride from Puerto Natales to Puerto Montt is an excellent idea. Kinda like the Marine Highway in Alaska. It looks to be an adventure in its own right. You'll see a part of the World you would have missed by back tracking on the bikes. Plus you'll be able to watch the scenery and take photos. Doubt if we'll hear much from you during the cruise, so leave the tracker active so we can follow you on Google Earth.

I've enjoyed coming home from work and catching up on the days latest mishaps/triumphs/tantrums/highlights/lowpoints etc etc etc. Be nice to see a pic of you two at the end of the road. That Vstrom deserves a pat. It did get you all the way...even if it was v-e-r-y slowly. You’ve made January & February a little bit more bearable.

You're getting the "old fart" speeds out of your system now, so you can happily ride like to wind when you're 80. Regardless of the challenges you're faced with, you guys have both had an incredible run to the end, now in sight. As much as I hate running into problems, I'd give my right one to be there with you guys. Stay safe. We're all anxious for your return. Ok Lisa, here’s the new perspective.
