Nebraska 2 is nice if you like country roads. Intersect with 385 after coming across. Interstates are never fun but if your out of time their fast. I try not to use them at all, nothing like 7000 miles of US Routes and backroads to see the sites along the way.

Thanks Melman

I forgot my username so I made this one. I have figured it out now looking at old emails.

Not trying to raise old threads, actually didn't look at the dates before posting. This is a great thread although a controversial one. I like to see people riding at Sturgis and ride all of the roads with them. I just don't have a lot of time so I usually make one big bike trip a year. 30 to 35 years ago the wife could handle it but now I don't think she could handle it either way. I have hauled the fifth wheel around for 70,000 miles working so it does not seem like a vacation. Nothing compares with the bike trip.

If you have a single destination the trailer would make sense, not the way I roll. Usually 3 or four days in Sturgis on the trip is enough for me and then I'm off on the rest of the trip.

I think a post in the famous 'What transmission oil do you use' thread would get lost.

I have always used Harley oil in my bikes, except the Honda back in the 70's. It's the best because I get my oil changed every 5000 miles on the road at the Harley shop. They always have it. Syn3 x 3.
