It's a great run through Yarnell, Mingus Mountain and Jerome.

A good chance to get rid of the chicken strips on the feisty 850 Nevada...

Nice!  Is the guy selling Urals on the corner as you come into town from the west side still there?  He usually makes it out to Overland Expo...

Prescott is a fun little town indeed...looks like the Ducati there has Dusty's number!  :)

Yes!  Some aging hippie-chick was selling it...I talked to her briefly, and it was restored inside and out...and I looked it over...but not worth $38K (IMHO).  Nice example however... :wink:

I've fallen in love with the ride thru Sedona and thru Jerome. Doesn't get better than that. Nice pictures.

Much of the movie "Billie Jack"  was filmed in Prescott.

Clip #1 is the fight scene in front of the courthouse and Whiskey Row.

Clip #2 is Marino's Hamburgers directly across the square from Whiskey Row. (good burgers/great shakes)

Yes....and one of the best motorcycle roads in the entire state... :1: :thumb: :cool: but one has to go SLOW and be very careful on the twisites...because of the tourists looking around and not paying attention... :rolleyes: :shocked:
