We had a great time.

But 45 MPH on the BRP sucks.

The 09 was at 11020 when we got home from CHL last weekend.

We rode the 03 this week for a couple hundred miles.

Since we were going to be with other S/E's mostly two up we took the 09.

So the last 100 miles home today was in the rain.

Be it 5 miles or 500 miles a dresser gets really dirty when it rains.

It sits on the lift with 11600 miles on the clock.

And still has tread left on the rear tire, not much but some.


HML, do not look at this picture!

Nice pics! We just got back from the northern end. Rode Skyline Drive at ...35+. Went down the outside of Route 211 and saw a street sign that said HIGH PORPORTION OF MOTORCYCLE CRASHES NEXT 3 MILES. Finished that stretch at 25+. Pics will be posted later when unpackings done.

I remember reading about the group that took the BRP to York last year.
There's no way I could do that.
To many cars, and to slow, give me some 4 lane!

Glad your safe!

The best thing about the BRP and Skyline Drive if you live close to them is the temp up there is a lot cooler during the dog days of summer. Nothing like jumping up on the parkway in July/Aug when it's to hot to ride anywhere else.

Looks like a nice group of bikes to ride with...even one of those fast red ones.  I assume that dragon on the rear fender will come off real easy.  I bought one for mine and haven't put it on yet, and I wasn't sure if I wanted to put in on my windshield or rear fender.  My dealer seems to keep finding ways to destroy my windshields, so I thought the rear fender may be the better choice, but I'm not sure I like the look with both the medallion and the dragon there.  So the question...just heat it a little and pull it back off if I don't like it?  Or I may find another spot for it, of course.

You will have a new bike before you have to worry about removing the Dragon!

Tell him Brad!

But Dave worries about everything.

If there's nothing to be worried about, then he worries why there is nothing to be worried about.

I was actually hoping to hold onto a bike for more than a year this time around...assuming they can figure out why I'm having all the problems starting this one.
