88lx5oh Posted November 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 started mapping out a ride. so far i have main rodes that are pretty good, but im gobnna look deeper into it and get some non main roads to travel along this same path. 161 in new albany area take that to 62N johnstown rd 62 to 541E new guilford rd then onto 83/36 NE we drop 83 and stay 36 NE ride that out and get on rt250 / 800 E in urichsville again we will loose 800 and keep on following rt 250 250 will takes us through tappan lake area we can make a stop in cadiz, i know the area and we can grab some food there. we leave cadiz and get on 22 south which will take us through salt fork lake 22sw will also pick up rt40 we will eventually get to 146N aka underwood st, and we can take that back up to 16E and then back to 161 now rt 250, and 22 are for sure roads id want to hit, they are great roads to ride on! i might find some alternatives for the other roads especially 62, 36, and 16. but i am going to look on google maps pretty good to see what is the nicest and most scenic routes for us to take. distance wise i have no idea yet. id say there is a solid 6- 8 hours of ride time there maybe more.

88lx5oh Posted November 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 ok i got a nice route mapped out, you can check it out here. http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&t=h&msa=0&msid=117717069586284978418.00045c6abdc50a3b07b1c&ll=40.226073,-81.826172&spn=1.815971,3.537598&z=8 you can figure up the miles yourself im not sure i think its probably around 320 miles round trip. anyone feel free to let me know of a better more scenic route than what i have laid out. i definately want to hit rt 250 and 22 up they are great roads. alot of lakes, and parks on this route as well. ill get a full out directions for everyone so they can print out as well. id like to get a date set up and a role call with name and numbers for contact.

kenny Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Doesn't seem like anyone is interested, my one buddy I'll be doing track days with will be in Iraq all next season and I'd probably miss rides like this one... so I minus whale keep it.

I'm sorry my impression was f3, f4 etc stood for the generation as a whole not just the 600. I'm looking at picking up a 95-98 900 and maybe putting my spray kit on it if it's not fast enough. my 250 kawi even seemed quick with the bottle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
