Glympse is the tracker I have been using. Basically, you click a link I make, and it shows you real-time where I am, how fast I'm going, etc. Freaked my dad out Friday when I was using it, the battery died, and he couldn't tell that I was still riding. Plus that part of the freeway was full of trees. He freaked out, called me (didn't go through) and he called the police. They had JUST finally dispatched someone after 4 calls to various numbers an hour later when I pulled into his place. Apparently, the thought I'd smacked a deer.
Sarge, I haven't run seafoam yet, no. I haven't gotten the chance to ride it at all since the rain. Won't be able to tonight, either. Tomorrow I am hoping to. I will check the box you mention, but remember that I have a filter for my blow-by set up. So it doesn't go in the box, it goes in the filter. Yes, this could be the reason it was running like crap, but it doesn't make sense still as to why it was coming into power/going out/coming into power. And why it does it as well when dry, albeit not nearly as often. And why I am getting such crap gas mileage.
I'll seafoam it next tank though.
I don't have the option of a separate, different vehicle. I only have the bike and the car I just got. But I'm doing this on the premise of riding the bike. Doing this trip in the car just doesn't sit right with me. I'm doing this to get into nature, not surrounded by metal and glass. I'm having the mechanic look at it tomorrow or Wednesday, and that will tell me what's going on I think. And if the bike is good for a 5k mile journey.

Turbos, Hondas, 4-bangers, what could go wrong?
Shiny: [...] Considering the weather you've had to put up with I'd say you get an Iron Butt award and a Frozen Nipple trophy to go along with it. First time I've ever posted the word nipple... it ends here.
