Calling all Doof Riders going to CO!!
I will mention this as an issue with altitude and brakes.
I posted this under a carb thread, but though I would also put it here for reference. Make sure you have bleed your brakes and have fresh fluid in them. The altitude will enhance any minor amounts of air and water in the system and cause your brakes to get very mushy at 12k + feet. Not a good feeling coming back down a mountain. It happened to a friends bike and my bike, his was worse than mine, while climbing Mt. Elbert. His back brake was almost worthless until he got back down, and mine was very mushy.
