I might well meet you coming back - my plans at the moment are to leave Vancouver around mid-June. Still fleshing out the details on that but I can't see it being a problem.
I don't think you'd be slowing me down - to get 400k+ range out of the KLR I'll be doing tops 80-90kph and probably more like 75kph. It'll depend on traffic, for the most part. Cruising at 110kph with gear drops the range to ~300k and frankly the bike is too damn loud at that speed.
Are you going with knobblies for the Dempster or sticking to dual-purpose tyres?
