Best bike I have owned hands down. I rode 8 hours day today covering 425 miles of Oregon roads (no freeways)without issues other then my knees getting a little soar by the end of the ride. Some pictures. 218 running between Shaniko and Fossil is just awesome. 11,000 miles and runs better then ever. |

I was just scoping out a ride through there, looks like I'll have to make sure 218 is on my route! I've done a couple 400-600 mile days on my 1125r, and I've come to the same conclusion....this is the funnest street motorcycle ever made! |

218 is worth it. The last picture is actually from NFD 42 by timothy lake and the two before that is Wamic market rd in the Tygh Valley area. |

you out there all by yourself? must have one looking over you,, Good for You! I've been over many of them roads looking for game birds to shoot. Was really cool to run into a bunch of Chuckar's down by the river right across from the Rashneshies tending gardens. Really freaked them out!,LOL |

Great pics! If I were ever to ride a stretch like that, I would think the bike and I had died and gone to heaven. WOW! |

Yea its a little nerving to be out there by yourself. Especially since there is no cell service. The good thing is that about every 20 minutes or so you will see another motorcyclist or rancher. |

Great pics Swede! Your 1125R looks great in its "natural" surroundings. |

That's one of the best looking 1125rs I've seen on the boards. I need to get rid of my damn mirrors too. |

Thanks! I think so too. LOL But then I am biased. Man its torture to work when the weather is so nice and there are so many more roads in my backyard to explore. |
