Mike, 2014 Ducati 1200Monster. Smallest brains in the group LoL
He actually got lost when all 9 of us were riding back to the cabin. He was in the middle of the group. When everyone turned right - he went straight and didn't notice till he was lost. haha I found him at a gas station, about a mile straight down from the Cabin haha

Great stuff. How do you like the fairing and what saddle bags do you have? Also that is a 13 right? What pipes do you have?

For the trip I used the Ogio saddlebags with the Ogio tail bag. The tail bag was actually empty on the way there. I left it on as I figured I would buy some things as I was running around. The 2 saddlebags held all my clothes, bathroom supplies, rain jacket, and a regular jacket, for the 4 days I would be changing clothes. They held it all with room to spare. Only advice I have for future use of them, bag everything you want to keep smelling fresh. Clothes did have an exhaust smell when I got to North Carolina.

The fairing - is phenomenal. I couldn't imagine the bike without it honestly. above 75MPH - wind protection goes away. 70MPH and under - is just phenomenal.

CB is a 2013 with Moriwaki Titanium Dual Exhaust. Its just an incredible exhaust.

Glad you had a good time and got back home in one piece. Quite an adventure for your first.

Nice report and great pics. Are those stills from your go pro?

It was such a good time, that I honestly can't express it with words. Waking up everyday just to spend time on the CB in such a beautiful part of the country. Ever the roads were amazing. Almost all were smooth with no swell or holes ... completely different from Indiana. Nobody wanted the weekend to end.

The stills are a mix of GoPro and Iphone 4s

In the post were I say staring 2013 CB - that roadside shot of the CB was with my Iphone 4S. I then sat on the side of the road as everyone rode past me, I just recorded them going by. I then paused the video on the computer and got a still photo from the video. GoPro was used on most of the road shots as well.
