Welcome aboard! It sounds like you have already put lots of thought into setting up your bike for serious travel. I'd still recommend a serious shake down cruise before you set off on a 5 week trip. Maybe a long weekend from TN over to the Blue Ridge Parkway for a couple hundred miles, or tackle the TN part of the TAT. My thought here is that you will probably find some 'adjustments' are required in order to stay in the saddle for a long trip. In my case I have the comfort seat but it's still not quite right for much more than 200 miles. I also had to change the suspension, first to the Progressive shock and then to a lighter spring. These are the kind of changes you can't easily make on the road and they make a world of difference on a trip.
FWIW, a few RX3 folks are going to get together in Marlinton, WV...24-27 August. I hope you can join us.
