Chilling in the Columbia Gorge

[bjago]

I wanted to stretch the legs on the new to me 05 Tiger

So I took a ride east out the Columbia river gorge, first off through Washugal river road, then meandering my way through the gorge up White Salmon River canyon hiway 141 then up to Cook-Underwood Rd.

A quick trip across the Columbia river to Mt Hood for some gas.
Then up Hiway 35 to Hiway 26 and then the snow started and the dirty road rain was kicked up by the cars and trucks in frot of me


What I learned on this 250 mile ride.
One: the stock windshield is woefully inadequate but better then the steamers extended Powerbronze.
Two: The factory heated grips are GREAT!!
Three: With the grips and the vest on high the charging system is just strong enough.
Four: I LOVE THIS BIKE !!!
