It's pretty up there when it snows there too. :thumb:

I picked up my yellow beast last Saturday from the mechanic. It ran sweet with temps in the high 30s. I'm sure the fuel economy was in the low 30s if not the high 20s. Looking under everything in the house for my camera.

Beautiful bike J.J., and a good place to ride it - AKA motorcycle heaven.  With a little luck I get to go there a couple times a year.

Looks like fun.  I love riding the roads in your area when I (rarely) get the chance.  Especially south from Jerome.
