Oh Wow! The Duc looks like it has Crystal Dylithium Pulse Engines! (At least from the bum end!).
But the Norge is something I'll want when I grow up! Thanks for posting pics!


 Needed to borrow some Dylithium Crystals today  Lol

OK ... Near Baker City Oregon.  That is taken on the Idaho side of the snake river heading to the dam. Hells Canyon rd. sadly, I am home tomorrow. But on the way back rode an amazing road from John Day to Fossil. Wow, was that fun.

278 perhaps? This is the route we're taking on Tuesday on our Bend to Pendleton leg. Any insights/warnings?

Thanks Jim. I'll take a look at that.

Edit:

Ah, I see. I was looking at the John Day fossil beds area to the NW, not the town itself. I'll file your route info away for another trip. Thanks.

19 is definitely one of my faves in OR-as a matter of fact, I just plain love riding in the corner of OR.  I'll be down there from the 31st-3rd with some friends from the Seattle and Portland areas.  Then over to ID for a few days more fun.  Can hardly wait and hope the weather gets more summer like.

Just looking at the OR map and thinking about OR 207 from Mitchell to Spray and OR 218 from Fossil to Antelope, 2 more of my eastern OR faves.  One of the things i have found is that eastern OR Highways do eat tires, i think because they use very angular basaltic rock for their chip seal.   However, this is a small price to pay for the great riding.

Thanks will have it in another 2 weeks, One thing I have just found out if you buy it new from the States and has under 5000kms you dont need an out of Province inspection. Just need a certificate of origin and they have to view the Odometer and Vin number.

I actually went to the local Guzzi dealer in Edmonton and they had one client's bike in the back, the salesman got permission from the owner to let me have a and sit on it.  I'm liking it even more now!  My short-list of possible Connie replacements just got shorter!!!
