I put over 500 miles on my Bugeye this weekend without a problem as a test run
to see if it would be up to going to MO next summer. The MO trip will be over
1200 miles each way from CT. It has a tired 948cc motor with a smooth case and
4.22 rear end. Is there anyone out there contemplating a trip of this distance
with the same type of equipment? It ran along at 65 to 70mph no problem except
for some of the longer uphills where I dropped down into 3rd gear. Does anyone
have an aftermarket cruise control installed? My right foot got tired and hot.
