So it might be a bit late. I went to Sturgis South Dakota the week before the rally in august. It was the coolest thing to see about 10,000 different bikes even though there was only about 15 sport bikes in the whole state.
i took some pictures of some roads and of my 08 so i thought i would share.

My bike now is completely blacked out. the sub frame and rear sets/pass pegs. the pictures are not up to date but still tight. the seat is a sheepskin cover which i love on long rides. Alaskasheepskin.com i believe is where i bought it online. it keeps the swamp butt away and keeps me nice and cool.






One of my chicken strip!!


and now for the scenery
I Never saw any snakes but i was aware


Some of the bikes in my group






Needles Highway was the ****. The whole thing was filled full of windy roads! this is where i lost my chicken!






Me on my 08 RR






And Some cool bikes that were in Sturgis and Wall Drug
The Boss Hoss V8. there were about 15 of these not all trikes. 1 had nitrious and roasted the tire for about 300 ft. it was ****!


















the oddest bike in sturgis.






This bike was at Crazy Horse. They had 2 bikes. this one was just on show.


this one was actually going to be given away in a drawing

 

There is a lot of crazy stuff out there. I really hope the garbage hanging off that bike is just for show. Ew.

 

Very cool man...how was the reception at sturgis pulling in with a sportbike?

Great pics..nice lookin bike too

 

Me and my bro ,he has an 06 r6, were the only sportbikes at sturgis that day. we rode through and we definitely got that infamous stare. but other than that most people were just watching us ride by and looking. I guess overall the people are just there for bikes and really dont care too much.

thanks about the bike. ive been watching yours unfold Red and i wanted to know where you got you evo exhaust?.

 

nice pics! love the Bigdog motorcycle you got a pic of on there. I've been wanting to do Sturgis, but I live REALLY far away and cbf taking off work/school and everything else in life.... POKER RUN this weekend though glad you had fun and everything went smoothly!

 

looks like some amazing roads man wish we had those here where I lived! Those are what makes riding so much fun

 

Sweet pics! Looks like a fun ride, under that rock tunnel thing looked cool.

Sooo, are the women crazy out there or what? we want stories!!
