great report!
a moto trip remains one of my last unfulfilled wishes for experiencing "the" baja.
i will do it but when i can't sort out now. maybe i'll see you there! love the bikes. i am a former harley owner. i won't ever own one again but will rent a couch for my baja trip.

Thanks!

Nice report and photos on your site!

I've also wanted to do the same for many years....

My earlier rides... (Harley 45 flathead Trike, ex-police bike: my Indian 45 flathead, resurrected basket case: and my favorite ~ my 52' BSA A10 Plunger / retro gerter) just weren't long distance rigs...

And now my scooters lack the HP for a long haul....

Your report has my juices flowing again!

Great Report! Man, it makes me want to come down on a touring bike!

These roads would be great on a bike, and where did you find a section you could pull off that actually had a shoulder that met the road?!?...LOL

Thanks. Yeah, they are around. You gotta look for them!

Those Tigers are not bad off road, last sept. I ran into an acquantance in San Juanico that had ridden down solo from Reno and did the north road in to San Juanico 65 miles of dirt. Nice ride report.

Mr. Gypsy would love to do that, I on the other hand, have a hard enough time in the mountains of Baja in a car, can't imagine doing it on the back of a bike!!

Loved the pictures.
