Just returned on an epic tour.

from CA to grand canyon, arizona and all the national parks in Utah and crossed over to colorado route 141. amazing scenery and roads in excellent condition.

I was too cheap to buy a radiator guard and it nearly ruined the whole trip. a rock had dinged the radiator resulting in a small leak. I rode about 7 hours and realised the coolant reservior was empty and radiator about half full.

luckily we were at a fuel station in a small town (cedar, UT) and found bar leak additives in an autoparts store. leak sealed right up and I continued.

no camping as I can't fit anything else on the SDR. 2 of us so motel cost is split. motel rates in UT is less than $80.

....................................................

the destination is salt lake city to watch WSBK. Pit pictures will be up later.

day 3: escalante, UT to capital reef, glen canyon NP, moki dugway, mexican hat, monument valley. then north and west into colorado to ride route 141 to grand junction. this was an epic day but 12 hours of riding tired us out. about 80 miles of curvy road on route 141. we couldn't stop as the sunlight was fading....

My 5 (almost 6) year old son looked at this with me, and he wants to go there! Like his Dad.

Thanks for the pics, looks fantastic!
