T-minus 63 days... I am going to Japan on vacation on May 27th and will be riding around most of the country in 16 days. I will be riding a Versys with everything I need on it. It should be quite the adventure. Anyone have friends or family in Japan I could hook up with to ride?

You def need to head up Mt. Hakone, south of Yokohama. Some of the best riding roads in Japan!! Also, go to Naps, a bigger version of Cycle Gear, most stores are in the Tokyo/Yokohama area, with one down in Nagasaki! Nagano is also a great trip, up thru the mountains.
