Test Drive Dec 29. 2007


Since I’m going to ride more then 6,000KM in 13 days; it will be wise to make short test tripe. The objective for this trip was to test my endurance, test the bike, check on the road condition, and test the GPS

I traveled about 900 KM in one day. I started the trip at 7:00AM from Kuwait City and arrived at Harley Davidson  dealer in AL Khobar Saud Arabia  around 12:00 noon. The road condition has changed since my last trip to Qatar in 2006. There are more road detours but the road are well paved.

At 6:00 PM I checked out of the hotel and started my trip back to Kuwait. It was not wise to ride at night. The road was some what crowded with all the travelers going back to Kuwait. The road detours were was not paved well. In some parts of the road I couldn’t drive faster then 40KM/H

The GPS was really good. It has most of the roads on it and it was easy to read. The other option that I really liked is the ability to upload you route to google maps.
