Aluminum Auxilliary Tank Modification

feeds@yuku.com (Rain Man1100) — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 21:02:05 GMT

For those of you who want to go further than 120 miles without stopping, the Tourer tank just won't get you there. Because of the limited number of bikes made, no one offers an aftermarket auxilliary tank to fit anywhere in the frame (not that there is room). A company called "Coyote Gear" (web site is at www.coyote-gear.com and the related link is www.tourtank.com...

First Long (?) Distance Ride on the Tourer

feeds@yuku.com (allanbegg) — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 15:18:57 GMT

All,

I picked up my '99 Tourer on Friday, and rode it the 50 miles home. I decided that it was mechanically in great shape and I put a little faith in good old Honda engineering. I decided to ride it on the pre-planned trip that was scheduled for the next two days. I managed to put over 500 miles on it, between Saturday and Sunday.

Of those 500 miles, we did about 325 miles in the rain. Naturally, the start and finish were dry, but everything else was in the rain. We...

It has been a while Tourer Bros. I am planing a trip to Branson MO early Oct. We will trailer the bike from Michigan and ride day trips out of Branson. I know some of you had a rally in Eureka Springs in the past. I am looking for great rides and looks for day trips if someone can help. I know the days will be shorter in Oct. but i am hoping to see some color in the trees also.
Thanks D

Tried to get to Whistler today, the site for the 2010 Winter Olympics, but encountered rain, so I turned around and came home. Will try again this Monday.

Here is the pictures I took. Will add more on the next trip. Will add notes as I find time.

Question about fuel stops between Winnemucca and Boise

feeds@yuku.com (BackNBlack) — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 12:13:06 GMT

Hello,

I am going to be taking the T on a road trip next week and one leg of the trip is up 95 from Winnemucca NV to Boise ID. I know there arent many towns along this route. So hoping someone can recommend fuel stops. I have done a bunch of searching online and think I have a few ideas of where there are gas stations, but I appreciate any help from those who have actually done the ride.

Thanks!

Since Marmon007 mentioned about the BC mountians, here is some more of BC I recently took on a trip I took alone.

Fraser Canyon for some reason the pictures are listed in reverse order, maybe that did it?

Going from the Coast mountian at the mouth of the Fraser, to the Thomptson River valley and the Cariboo.

Route on

NY to GA to NY to ME to NY

feeds@yuku.com (rdmurph) — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 19:02:47 GMT

I swore I would go until my gas card company said "declined". Well that never happened, but after 10 days and 3,000 miles I am home again. Down to Atlanta for family and baseball. Back to NY to mow the grass and laundry. Then off to the great state of Maine for a long 4th week end. Back to New York and my job is still here (not necessarily a good thing...). The tourer performed better than a dream. I did as much as 750 mile in one day and don't regret it. I now have no fear...

Week end Ride to Boston

It was my nephew's college graduation and we are all real proud of him. But it was just the reason I needed to do a 500 mile trip. Got snapped by a fellow rider on 95 southbound.

NY to ME week end ride

feeds@yuku.com (rdmurph) — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 19:21:48 GMT

The ride was over a week ago, but it took me that long to get over the glee of the trip. So I'm posting it now. I left White Plains, NY at noon on Friday, 4/17. It was a beautiful 55 ish sunny degrees all the way. I picked up a fellow rider in Old Orchard Beach, ME on the way up and we landed at our destination of Bangor at 8 pm (445 miles for those that want to know). WHAT A RIDE! I was dressed for it, comfortable and traffic was light. Cruised the coast over Sat and Sun and returned...

My father likes to ride ridiculously long distances, so for his Birthday I am going to plan an Iron Butt Association ride (1000 miles in 24 hours or less!!). I'm going show him the plans on his birthday in late April, and hopefully be able to do the ride in mid May, depending on weather. I need help trying to plan the ride. For anyone who has done some riding around the lake superior area, or live in the area, what are some good roads to take, more importantly, to avoid. Good places to...

Has anyone done the AlCan in the last year or two ?

feeds@yuku.com (Marman007) — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 14:13:46 GMT

Here in the frozen norhtland, my wanderlust is getting the better of me. I am considering a run from MN up to Alaska.
Has anyone done the AlCan lately ?
There is a ton of great info out there, but so much seems to depend on the year - mainly road conditions and what is under construction at any given time. I hate riding gravel, and hear of the potential for many miles of it.

Also - Can any of our Canadian friends in Alberta and B.C. comment on best time to travel...

Myself and three riding buddies just completed an 1800 mile ride to Crater Lake, Oregon, south to Crescent City, California and returning back to British Columbia by way of Hwy. 101 north along the beautiful Oregon Coast to Port Townsend, Washington.

We had beautiful sunny days enjoying our ride south through central Washington and Oregon enroute to Crater Lake which is located in Southern Oregon near Klamath Falls. Crater Lake was formed as a result of a volcano and discovered by...

I put a little over 2,000 miles on my bike last week. I saw Oregon from the Columbia Gorge to Hell's Canyon to Crater Lake to Hiway 101 on the Pacific Coast. The most exciting may have been the 100 miles done on a bike path that we were led to believe was a Forest Service Road! MY BIKE IS FILTHY!
