how did she hold up? im driving to cali next month from seattle, just wanna make sure she dont die. i have a 2000 gsr. anything i should do\look out for? thanks

 

Five-oh, just look out for them.

 

I know that a few members on here have taken their tegs on cross country trips. Just check the tires, oil and belts and make sure everything looks good. You should be fine.

 

oil change

 

took my 94ls from Toronto to Ottawa. I think it was like 6 hours or so. She held up fine.

If I had the option to temp raise my car , I would of done that, but I dont soo...

 

I took my GSR from CT to Buffalo and back twice and had no problems.

 

Taken my car all over the east coast with over 100k miles on it and no complaints!! :thumbup:

 

Just make sure your cooling system is in great condition with the appropriate mixture of 50/50. Parts of California right now are very hot and will stress your cooling system a bit (especially on the grades or summits you encounter in your travels). If your traveling on parts of the 99 or 5 frwy and especially the 395 the last thing you want is a boil-over!

...Other than that the air cleaner, topped off on all the fluids, check the air pressure in tires, etc......are in order as well.

Long hauls are good for the engine
