Just finished a 4-day tour, covering a lot of California. My Vulcan left everyone else in the dust! :pepper:

Check it, hope you like the pics.

You HOPE we like the pics??!! How could we not!!?? :smiley_th
Man, what beautiful scenery!!
The only reason I couldn't like those pics is because I wasn't there! LOL

I've been thinking about a week or two vacation out West on a rented bike. At first I was thinking the Grand Canyon on a dualsport. Your awesome pics and great words to describe them may have changed my mind though!
How often do you Pashnit guys (and girls) do rides like this?

Thanks a ton for sharing!!

Those are beautiful photographs. It looks like everyone had a great time on absolutely gorgeous roads. Thanks for sharing!!!

I will say this: you definitely were riding the coolest bike! :smiley_th

Tell me: 1) What kind of saddle bags do you have? 2) What kind of seat do you have? 3) How do you keep the tank bag on ~ magnets only, strap only, or both? (I just use magnets ~ have never found a good place to tie the bag strap.)

Pashnit tours does rides all the time. Check their website http://www.pashnittours.com/

This was my third tour with them. First was AWESOME. Second was FANTASTIC. Third was LEGENDARY. Wonder what the fourth one will be?

Like I said before, our bike, the Vulcan 750, is an absolute screamer on the twisties. Get your butt out here to California and let's go ride!

You're welcome! On a lot of the roads, had a choice: Stop for pics, or keep riding. Often riding won out. Zoom!

hehe yup :p

1. Givi E21's. Thread about them here (http://www.vn750.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4663).

2. Mustang. It's really comfortable, all day long.

3. Magnets. Holds fine, it's a Marsee bag. Tag says "20 liter tear drop tank bag".

Great pictures. Looks like it was fun. Hope you don't mind me using the Patterson Pass pic as my background.
I need to remember to take my camera on my trips.

I see you have a set of hard bags on your 750, what kind are they?

That's what it's all about - good friends, good roads, great bikes.
