[/There are some really stony roads up there, but earlier I have not had anything like this (5th summer with my CT). In this trip, Varadero and BMuu F800GS did the same route without any problems. I am heavy, and we were not slow.. But up there you are not taking any foolish risks, those areas are rather remote (not even cell coverage..), so the speed has to remain sensible. But we did carry all the gear with us all the time. quote]I have the spokes of my old XLV750R's redone at an specialist, he replaced the spokes by thicker stainless steel ones. Don't you have f.e. a motorcross specialist somewhere in your area? They should be able to replace the spokes by aftermarked ones.
The spokes in that link are available in September.. Delivered here in Finland approx. on 9th. I had to cancel my trip next weekend.
Crosstourer have quite unigue spokes, I could not find any ready aftermarket set. There is a Finnish company that can do the spokes for me, as I can provide a few spokes for model (CT has two kind of spokes at rear wheel). They promised to deliver at the end of September. Maybe I'll go for them at winter, for extra set.
