I had a week in N.C. and had to ride all the popular roads and then some. She ran perfect for my 1650 mile week. I put a new Dunlop 404 on the front and really like the grip she had in the corners, a well used  (20k) Austone in back as well had great traction. spent a night in Pigeon Forge and Bryson City but mostly at my Brother in law Jeffrey's log home in Nebo, south of Marion. Gotta love those twisties !




mt. Mitchell back there.

Nice pic Mr Sixlow, I can almost breath the fresh air just by looking at them.

You did do a top to bottom check up on her before the trip so she reciprocated with many trouble free miles for your riding pleasure.  cooldude

Your brother in law has a nice set up, views and all.

Big Mike,
Looks like a great time, I am jealous! We are just now getting some decent riding weather.

John,
Give me a call or PM when you get your Wisconsin trip figured out, If you have the bike we can get in a ride, if not, we can meet up for lunch. (providing she is not too far away)

Pappy,
That is what I was referring to when I told John "if she is not too far"
Tomahawk is 4 to 5 hours from me, so way too far to do a lunch run.

Real nice area to catch some wind.
Just a bit of a let down when you get back to the flat land.
Glad all went well.

Looks, and sounded like a fantastic trip.  That cabin on the lake looks like paradise.  Too bad we have no hills in Florida....

Whoever took the picture of you going around that turn did a great job!

Cheers!
