used to own: 1982 R100T, 1984 R65, 1986K75C, 1997 R1100RT, R850R, K75S, 1978 R100RS... what was I thinking?
To bad there is no Australia since they have states like the US and Can.
I have ridden HD's (still have an Ultra Classic) and am sitting in Honolulu typing this as on Friday (it's still Thursday here) I will have my 50th state on a HD renting a Road Glide tomorrow. I bought my first BMW in August and am starting over to get all 50 states on a BMW. I'm getting the hardest one out of the way early as I rented a 1150 R today. So I ask the masses, do you know anyone that has all 50 on two different brands? I will have around 20 or so by June on the BMW. I'll get them it may take a while. It took me 7 years to get to 50 on the HD, 5 to get 49.

After you create your own map and save it,
how do you add states?
Or do you just start over each time?
Thanks, Phil
Just lacking Hawaii . . .
And Nunavut! Didn't even know that was there.
Paul , on our way to Alaska this summer . . .

I've barely been into a few of these states/provinces, but I did at least gas up in them, so I guess it counts
John A. Brown - Kalamazoo MI
'09 K1300S 'Zoot' (Wicked, bad, naughty, evil, Zoot!)
'96 K1100LTA 'Dusty'
'94 K1100LT 'Desert' (the horse with no name)
My criteria is a little more strict than wheels touching. To hit the list I have to have slept overnight in the province/state.
Last year was my first year back in the saddle after a 26 year layoff.
All of the visited were done in and around the 07 National.

Sure, no problem!Oh, and it doesn't count if you flew somewhere and rented a bike. That's cheating! My thread, my rules....
A piddly 4 US states, 5 provinces and a mere 13 countries....and all on my own motorcycle.
I know, I have to get out more.
