Thanks again Fellas.
JonS, you live in SE Utah = a truly great riding area with stunning scenery!
I meant to post some info earlier on wheel straightening in the San Francisco Bay Area. Gerry Piazza is a master at straightening frames and wheels. He removed both wheels from the bike, straightened both, balanced and reinstalled for $300, as opposed to a used KTM 950SM rear wheel on ebay asking $450.

Outstanding RR!
I've ridden some of the sections around Glacier and thru CO and UT but didn't know about the cool stuff in central WA and BC. Inspiration for a trip next year.
Thanks for taking us along!

+1 Outstanding
I've traveled out that way, & just amazed that you took on Muir Trail and went into some places like Grosover Arch on streebikes (well, maybe they've paved the road by now, but it weeren't too pretty last time I was on it)
Absolutely amazing

I'd rather be riding anywhere with you than sitting at this d@mn keyboard.

Not paved and absolutely diabolical at times. Worth it though.
