Sweet. Great scenery. Nice sound track too. Hard to believe Mr. V-Max could haul cross country like that... Did he pack gas in his tail pack?

Yep, he engineered the spare tank just for this trip. Going to manufacture a steel bracket, the aluminum one broke free after a nut came loose and it started to vibrate.

Nicely done, KenDawg! Gotta wonder about the, uh, N.P. at about 6:25 in tho. Somebody piss you off? Looks a little like a Muppet!
If that trip was half as good as it looks, you musta had a helluva time. We need more Texans up here.....

Some expert photography right there. Thanks for sharing that with us ... I recognise a lot of those scenes from trips I did with my Dad. I need to get back and do that some more.

Very cool. Recently rode solo from north Texas to just north of Green Bay, WI, and back over 6 days. Business trip, so it was mostly interstates and bigger highways, but I got to visit the National Motorcycle Museum in Anamosa, IA, and the Harley-Davidson Museum in Milwaukee. Took a detour through the Ozarks on the way home. Looks you and the guys had a great trip. Keep it upright!
