2022 Indian FTR-S Prep for a 1,400 mi (est) Run to Tucson, AZ IMRG Rally

Prep of my 2022 Indian FTR-S for my first long run on the bike. Doing a run to Tucson, Arizona from north-central New Mexico with three Indian riders from Albuquerque. Prep for this run included the following
- Pre-run inspection by Indian Motorcycle of Albuquerque (alway have mechnics check my bikes before long runs)
- My wife bought me the Indian Messenger Bag with hardware, , and a 3L fuel container for this trip. Using the messenger bag for the quick get to stuff during the run. Fuel container for use if something goes wrong and there is no gas station where we have currently mapped out on my route.
- using my Nelson Rig tail bag I normally have on my Buell: will use this for laptop, clothes, and other items I do not have to access quickly on the road.
- a small backpack/camelback: will use this for storing stuff I might need to get to on the run.

Hi, Hope the ride went well, I'll watch your vid later, I'm thinking of getting an Indian FTR 1200 s. and I watch a lot of post's relating to the bike. So every one who has one or ridden one, reports the bike is very good.
