isde97 29 Posted December 26, 2011 I am a possible for this, if someone going from the Carlsbad region has trailer space for a 990. My enthusiasm for 2 hours of freeway in 40deg temps doesn't run too high. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crawdaddy 96 Posted December 27, 2011 75-100 miles Not sure about The Smoker's range on stock 2.9 gallon tank....thinking ~80-90 miles?.....I may ride tomorrow but I'll likely stay closer to home since I'll be down that way over New Years.....have fun!
