My Favorite Mod so far is adding miles yo my odometer.....
Here are some pics of my solo NJ to New Orleans Scrambler trip. I did it in 4 days, taking Hwy 11 alot, but also spent a bit of quality time in Shenandoah and the the Blue Ridge Pkwy. I'm not done yet. I am in NO right now, and plan to do the return trip starting Monday.

This is me at the end of Shenandoah. Was anyone here camping at Big Meadows on the night of 4/22? I saw a Bonnie in another camping area, but never got to go see them.

This is my bike in Natural Bridge, VA at FoamHenge. Only in America...

and a closer shot of the packing

Souds like a great trip - Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenence - it's the trip, not the destination.

Happy riding!

Are those Speed triple bars? I have a set myself and was contemplating putting them on. Are the pretty comfortable and what about the handling. I noticed going from my speed triple to the Scrambler you need a LOT more steering input so I wondered how you felt about that since the triple bars are not quite as wide. By the way the bike looks great and nice pics :chug:

Amazing isn’t it!

Here’s my Scrambled in front of Stonehenge II in the Texas Hill Country. It was built in the late `60’s when wandering bands of hippies occupied the lands in and around Austex. They are mostly extinct now. Other than a few sleeping mats that still stink slightly of patchouli, they left little trace of their somewhat primitive existence.
