I spent a night in Bar Harbor, ME prior to getting on the Cat Ferry to Yarmouth, NS to spend a week riding in Nova Scotia. Bar Harbor was amazing. It was nasty weather the day I rolled in, so I wasn't able to go through Acadia National Park, so I have an excuse to go back.
![]() I've said it before and I'll say it again, if anybody ever has the opportunity to ride to/through Nova Scotia, do it. Of 47 states and 6 Canadian provinces I've ridden through, Nova Scotia is at the top of my list. Absolutely amazing! I love it there!

I am considering a older model GS after talking to a few people about the newer GS issues. The older ones are suppose to be tanks while the new ones can't take a beating.

This is only my third season riding and Im no where near fast but I already know where youre coming from trip. I see myself having a newer ss as my next bike and doing some track days and then either adding or trading for something like a busa to use as a sport tourer like grex to just take long trips on.

i honestly think, the day i give up sportbikes, will be the day i quit riding for good.... cruisers, motards, tourers just dont do it for me, that being said, i enjoy riding a slower pace as much as i do hauling ass, lately i've been slowing it down overall, but i probably wont give up sportbikes and their awesome power, braking, handling, etc... I'd rather have it and not need it, than need it and not have it!!

I went to the chopper. I still wanted power and needed cool replacement. Last year when i would ride the wife's HD I felt that I was just riding to ride and for the enjoyment of the ride by itself. It wasn't about how cool I or the bike looked... just enjoy the ride. It was then when I realized I was over the "coolness" of the totally custom chopper. So I went the way of the HD and love it. I love the "turn key", I love the ability for it to travel on its own. No trailer, no added nothing. It can just go. I can not wait to do some traveling on the new bike. So see, my story is a bit different but the end results are just as similar as the way we got to this place. We want to enjoy the ride. Quote:
What you going for? XR? |

You got it. I've got a call into my dealer to demo one. My buddy is thinking about giving up his GSXR for the HD Rocker, as well.
