Spent 2 days riding around NH, longest ride I've taken the Katana on so far (371 miles). Very impressed how comfortable it was for a sport/tourer that's more on the sport side. Even got a few miles of off-pavement riding in! So it's a sport-touring-adventure bike I guess. Probably not recommended to ride on pine needles off road with sport tires though.
Made it the whole way without GPS. The wallet size tank bag you see has some simple written directions, basically which route/direction to go.
Scenery from the Kancamagus highway, super nice ride across mid/northern NH.

Really like how the panoramic on the Galaxy 3 works, click for larger:
End of the trail! This is where our cabin was:
In addition to the saddle bags, I strapped my EMS day pack on top as a third bag. Super easy to do
View from the front porch:
Branch of the Saco river basically runs through the front yard
And the mountains in the (near) distance
Last shot on the way home
Did pretty much the whole trip without going on the interstate much except around Manchester/Concord where I just wanted to bypass the more urban sections. Found a bunch of great roads to go on like the Kanca, 25, 28, 101, 16, 132 etc..
