Beautiful pics, Knucks. I especially like the Mt. Rushmore shot with the flag - gave me chills. This country has so many awesome natural sites to visit.

That is a damn good question.
I had a bunch of motor work done this spring (bumped compression, valve springs, cam, etc.) and they also tuned the carb. I forgot to ask what jets he put in. I'll have to see if they remember or drop and take a look.
Before that I had the standard jets that came with the vance & hines pipes. 78/33 I think?
Anyway bike runs the same up in the hills as it does down here in the city.....but "down in the city" is still 5,500 elevation for me.

Thanks for all the replies. I think Colorado has some of the best riding.....but of course I'm partial.
Let me know if anyone ever plans a trip out here. Would love to ride with for a day or two.
