Want to ride cross country but....

No effing way in hell would I ride a bagger across this beautiful country!!!!! Imagine all those cool fire roads, trails, swimming holes you could miss. What if ya have to go to the bathroom and you know what I mean, keep a roll of TP with you and off in the woods you go. I would go w a heavyweight adventure machine like a BMW, KTM, big suzook. ****, do what buellybagger said, buy a ully.....sell it when ya get back. If you take a loss I'm sure it would cover the rental costs you would've paid on that road pig Cadillac!!!!

Those adventure bikes are friggin sweet too.... Decisions, decisions lol.....

O.k., what's a bagger ?

Kenny, just log onto any gay porn site......BAGGER. Most have a 30 inch front wheel and really cool tribal skulls airbrushed all over them being highlighted by color changing and dancing led lights!!

+1 for buying a Uly. Only problem is you won't want to sell it after your trip.

If you're camping and fire road guy, get the ULY.

If you're a backroad and cheap hotel guy, buy bags for your XB. You will be surprised how little you really need. I never even did laundry, but I bought a new pack of undies and socks at Walmart when mine were dirty

I thought my XB was totally comfortable enough for the 100-120 miles between gas stops and I was praising the Baby Jesus that I was NOT on a Road King everytime I found a sweet curvy road (which was a LOT).

Which brings me to my original point... DO IT!!!!


Please allow me to suggest some rules for your trip. All are guaranteed to make it better or your money back.


Plan less. Even less than that. keep going... a little less... ok that's good.

Do NOT travel any interstate highways. The only exception to that rule is the I-70 west of Denver through the Eisenhower Tunnel and past Carbondale.

Do NOT plan your next stop until after lunch, but before sundown.

If you feel like you want to 'get there', don't speed up! Slow down! or even spend a whole day not going anywhere. It really works.

At every gas station, ask a person filling up their car wheres a good place to go/eat/ride. (Got a home cooked Thanksgiving dinner once)

Always say "Yes." (Got laid too)


Most of all, Do it. There are no bad motorcycle trips.
