    Default 800 mile trip thursday.

    I'm traveling for a total of 800 miles Thursday morning until Saturday evening to New Mexico. There is alot of WIDE open highways for the XTR 690 SE to shine. I must stay in FILTER mode and Ka max while in Texas to defeat the QT'ing Tx Dps. I will post videos as soon as i return. I hope its not going to be a flop by not seeing any LEO'S or radar for 800 miles cause i have seen it happen

    Snoopy, I knew what I/O is, I just never heard QT before. Sounds like QuickTrip, and I was close.

    Same thing.

    I've made many New Mexico - Texas trips and had this happen to me. No LEOs in sight! I guess it's a good thing when it happens, though. In any case when you get to Clovis if you want to take me up on my offer shoot me a PM and I'll give you my address if you want to stop by for a beer. We're going to Amarillo on Saturday and will be back Sunday to BBQ. Looking forward to your videos too!

    I have very little time this trip. I will be spending my time in Clovis with my Uncle. He has a very busy schedule. He is one of the big route bosses at the newspaper and works 24/7. I will return to Clovis soon and we will grab some beers
