    FWIW I logged 17k miles over a 12 year span...first street motorcycle. They lied. They told me I'd probably drop it also and that it was too large of displacement for begginner. Never happened. lol Now the dirt bike is a whole other thing and it's on the ground plenty.

    Well, they only have 2 wheels and want to fall over before any human even thinks about getting on it.

    I don't know if you guys saw my bikes. I've got two. Here is the first. - 2015 Road King standard. I've done some very nice upgrades to the engine, and also a Powervision & Target Tune from Fuel Moto USA & Dynojet.

    Was looking for an old pic last night and happened across one of my trips to US129. From what I gather, the place is a zoo now. I would still recco going at least once. Lots of other really nice rides besides 129 down there.

    The big parking lot down at the bottom of the 'Dragon'. Unsure what this area is for, perhaps a turnaround for semis?

    I turned around right here on Cherohala Skyway. Was riding through clouds in a mesh jacket freezing my ssa off! (didn't prepare properly)

    What a nice spot to stretch legs.

    No, doing a new additional garage so I don't need to sell the TL, and can add to the collection.

    Yep. The h2 is the 750 cc triple 2 stroke. Well, they were at least until they resurrected the h2 name.
