I just got back from the ride on Monday. Im happy to report that I kept the bike on two wheels and that I was well received in a group of Harley riders. The bike handles really well in the rain. Went over 300 miles in it on the way home.

Funny you should say that. There were a lot of parts in that tree. One of the guys in our group went down, we'll be sending his mirror to the tree.

I rode the tail of the dragon back in the beginning of June. It's a awesome ride for sure. Can't wait to go back and ride it and the other routes again.

My Dad (77 years young) loves to ride there. He ditched his HD years ago for a Kawi Mean Streak.

Watched some vids of it..... Just wish had the time off to go there 19 hours one way is just a little far right now

It was roughly a 10 hr ride down for our group. Broke it up in to two days on the way down and came home in one day. I gotta find a seat other than the stock one! That skyway looks awesome. Ill put that on my plan for next time.
