Ride across the arctic circle, but you're already 1/2 way there!

Thanks Jon.
I just bought a fzr1000 with a 1040 kit in it and wil be picking it up this week if the weather cooperates
The goal for this year is to do a trip in BC with the wife and one with my oldest girl. I would like to see Rich Hobsons ranch and have wanted to go to Bela Cola for a long time

0w-01 (acheivable) and NR750 (the thing of dreams)

Try and make it to the top of the hightest motorable road in the world, its in Northern India, had a go at it once before, on an Enfield 350 and had to turn back about 4Km from the top due to snow

I had to google bucket list... Things you do before you die... or perhaps die trying to achieve...

60 seconds around broadford would be good!

is there a bucket big enough really,

Don't think so man!!!

One desire would have to be, the ability to drive a Bugatti Veyron at it's 268mph limit for the fifteen minutes it would take to completely deplete itself of it's fuel source, of course no law enforcement either.

BTW Scott,

Make sure you buy a DH book for yourself, BC edition obviously. Only map source necessary when travelling on a motorcycle.

Bella Coola is amazing, try and do it from west to east as driving up "The Hill" is far less terrifying than down. And if you time it a couple days after a rain, the dust is minor for the looong gravel road on the Plateau.
