There's no way I could burn that much vacay at once. It would eat 3/4 of all my vacay for the year. And I plan on riding to sturgis this year.

By going from Las Vegas to Bakersfield you are skirting around Yosemite and missing some incredible sights.

Yeah maybe I will. But taking time off work is the big thing.

so the new thing is we are planning an ironbutt ride in the middle of this thing!!
the BMW MOA is having their rally at the same time our trip is going on 2010 BMW MOA International Rally Redmond, Oregon July 15 – 18, 2010 With a panoramic view of the snow-capped Cascade range, the Deschutes County Fair and Expo Center is situated on the outskirts of Redmond, Oregon just off of Hwy 97 and adjacent to the Redmond Municipal Airport. They offer ample parking, easy access and a wide range of indoor and outdoor event areas all set on 132 artfully landscaped acres reflecting the high desert beauty. This is a fantastic site for the 2010 Rally! with the rally they are having an ironbutt ride from three different locations, on in cheyenne wyoming, one from mesquite, nevada and one from Montana. the three of us are all starting at each location and planning on meeting up at the rally we are starting around 8 am july 13th, riding a thousand miles and hopefully meeting some good riders along the way i am planning on going from mesquite, NV and heading this route it will be kinda cool, three generations doing an iron butt ride and meeting at the international BMW rally 2010

There's already an accessory plug wired into the front fairing of the 1125R. You just need to get the other part of the plug and wire up your accessories. If you decide to get the grip heaters (highly recommended) it plugs into this accessory outlet and yet allows for another plug into the harness. That way you can add the grip heaters and a GPS/Radar detector.
