Hello,
I've had my K75s for about a year now, purchasing it after a 10 year riding hiatus. Over the years I've owned a slew of oilheads and airheads along with some nifty Japanese bikes. The K75s is an amazing bike. I love the ride, comfort, and ease of maintenance and often find it hard to believe it's over 20 years old. I commute year around and prefer long solo rides to group gatherings; however, you'll often find me rolling around backroads with a buddy on a Triumph Bonneville. If you see someone on a gray k75s with fly rods and camping gear strapped on, it's likely me heading one of Central Oregon's rivers. Fifteen + years ago I completed an Iron Butt Saddle Sore 1000 in Colorado and Wyoming. I'm thinking of another from Portland down to the Southeastern part of the state.
I do most routine maintenance on my bike. It runs like a dream but is a little rough cosmetically. I'm looking to replace the tragkorbs and to perhaps install an OEM trunk. If anyone has these bits for sale, shoot me a message.
Thanks,
~Marcus

Beavercreek isn't exactly Frenchglen or Jordan Valley. When I hear/read, "SE OR" I don't think of Beavercreek.
But, the ammenities (sp?) sound nice. :clap:

Try the rd. to Virgin Valley
Northern lights Black Opal Mine.
Warning: Do Not go off pavement if its raining or wet; bentonite clay loads up a heavy lug truck tire and you can slide off a road with a 5% slope (like ice). Can't imagine what a Motobrick would do???
Also; Wild burros.

SE OR is on the edge of the Great Basin. Very little of anything, including water. Most of the, "lakes" on the maps are actually swamps that are dry a portion of the year.
I mentioned Frenchglen and Jordan Valley as I've found them interesting places. Mc Dermmit or Basque are probably more south and east. I was through there a couple of weeks ago. Denio Junction has no gas until later this summer. Diesel, but no gas.
I rode with a guy once who said there was two rules for riding motorcycles in the desert. 1) See gas, buy gas and 2) don't order the seafood.
