    I just came back from a 13 day 3500+ mile ride to Southern California for a High School reunion picnic in Irvine. I took over 750 photos and a few hours of video. I plan on writting up the ride soon and post some pics. This video was on a section of Hwy 66 in Southern Oregon.

    I really wish I hadn't packed so much so I could have really railed this road. What a gas. More to come...

    Jay, ya think it shows a little :smile: I've put 5K on it since June 1st and just loving it more each day. I really had the opportunity to use the ABS. I do love to trail brake on the 750, but knowing you can hammer a corner and not worrying about losing traction is pretty damn cool too.

    nice video man. i bet you couldn't wipe that smile off your face for days! by the way, what was your speed? you seemed to be flying around corners. post up some pics if you have a chance.

    My speed varied from about 40-70. My tire had really started to cup and going left it started to push a little, so I would lower my speed on those corners but pick it up a little on the right handers.
