Ouch!
Here's something to consider on a long road trip....
17mm wrench
spare oli drain plug w/crush washer

I'm on my way down to Franklin, stopped to get a new set of tires and an oil change....
Got up this morning and found a huge, HUGE, puddle under my F6B, come to find out the oil drain plug was not tightened.
Luckily there was an auto parts store close by, snugged up the oil drain plug and I was on my way.

On another note for tips for a long road trip..... Back Roads
Took the long way through Ohio, route 60 south all the way to West Virginia. Beautiful road, beautiful scenery, lots of twisties.
Back roads are so much nicer than an Interstate if you have the time.
