Best Roads

Ok, let's have pics of the best riding roads... I'll start.

I used to have a 2007 FZ6 Fazer S2 in stealth Black with a CAT1/2 alarm, stainless Scorpion cans, Puig dark smoke screen, bd43's dual headlight mod, Yamaha 45L detachable rear box, frame sliders, center stand removal, red reflective rim tape, Reiobard's swing-arm stickers, PilotRoad 2CT tires, -10mm on the forks, -1 front sprocket, speedo healer, and a K&N oil filter, but some bastard stole it! Now I have nothing, but I'm getting a Gixxer K5 next.

Re: Best Roads

Well pics are only good if you want to drool. I want to ride.... so where are they?

Maybe this could be moved to the touring section. Start a section of just great MC roads? I might have to do that....

Re: Best Roads

33 in WV.... What a road! A bit more interesting in the winter. At least I was on the XT instead of the Fazer.

That is bad ace, the bike, gear and view of the mountains. Also cool as hell how that camera is connected to the side of your helment.
