Alpine Loop, UT SR92. I love harleys in the fall... I bought all three of my harleys in Autumn and there's something magical about it. You don't get the full effect of the blazing yellow aspens and eye-popping oak and maples from my cell phone pics, plus I was too gobsmacked by the beauty to remember to stop most of the time (plus it's pretty much a one-lane goat trail most of the way).

Anyway, thought some might enjoy the pics.

crappy suspension on the '09s, otherwise very cool. I posted a complete report and review in the  ride reports section if you're interested.
