Front seat. Pillion is ok. My wife gives me rides to go get my bike when it's at the dealer for whatever, but in general I prefer riding up front
Yep , is Big Red indigenous to Texas ?Big Red, huh? Are you in Texas?
I agree, skip Hawaii. I had the chance to ride around Oahu, and it was a bit disappointing. Never got the rented Sportster out of 2nd gear, circumnavigated the island in no time at all, and the roads are filled with tourist-rented cars.Don't go to Hawaii. You won't be able to go back home. As Newman said "the most coveted route of all; the air is so moist you don't even have to lick the stamps".
Yessir it is a Texas thing. When I got married my dad ordered cases of Big Red in glass bottles and brought them out to Vegas for us to have something Texas at our wedding. We actually did our toast with Big Red bottles. Nectar o' the Gods, it is.Yep , is Big Red indigenous to Texas ?
Would love to move to Dublin (Texas) and have a pipe piped into the house straight from the DP place there .
HEY THATS ALMOST OUT MY BACK DOOR . S/WEST WIS . HIT THE BACK ROADS , HU BACK HILLS AND CORNERS YE HA :wav:Personally I havent gone on any trips yet since I just recently purchased the bike, but I travel every year and have been to every state in the country except hawaii. I know there are alot of cool tourism things to do when your driving a car through these states but there are so many things only the "locals" know about for riding....
Please post up your favorit area to ride and where its at, and why its your favorite. If you have any pics please post a few so we have an idea of why its your favorite...visually as well.
Personally from minnesota I think a trip up the north shore near duluth would be an excellent ride especially during late june, and during september!

Amen to that! You're only about 20 miles from here. I do the Dragon frequently. Other great rides in the area are the Cherohala Skyway and the Sequatchie Valley from Pikeville, TN to Jasper, TN. David Sequatchie Valley: Crossville to South Pittsburg Topo MapUS 129 "The Dragon's Tail", with 318 curves in 11 miles (Some of which hairpin) what motorcyclist wouldn't love. Thats where my profile picture is from aswell. Ive run it a few times now, only messed up once got a few scratches and the wind knocked out of me but I was going a bit faster than i should have been.
