Well, I just got back from a round trip up to Calgary, Icefields Parkway, Hyder Alaska, California, and back to St. Louis. 8K miles. No problems to speak of. I am SO happy with the KiPass! My dad rides a BMW would get on his bike, get his ear plugs in, get his helmet on, get his gloves on, and "OH Chit!!". Have to take his gloves off to root around and find his key in his pocket.
This is exactly how it is supposed to work. I didn't have any issues knock on wood, but truly appreciated the ease of getting on and going! I may see it differently one day, but I think that day could be a long time from now!
I DID NOT, appreciate the heat. My 08 was warm, but coming through New Mexico, and Oklahoma the temps were in the 115 range, I rode 75 MPH with three bars showing on the temp gauge. It was cooking hot! I wanted back into Canada! It rained on us EVERY SINGLE DAY, and was generally pretty chilly with temps anywhere from 37F degrees in the mountains to 55f down low. At one point I was frozen!
All in all it was an EXCELLENT trip with my pops! So happy to have done it!
