Good deal Phil, rides like that one are the ones you remember the most! I did a similar thing in Australia on a RZ350 and drove up and down the west coast couple hundred miles. Awesome memories!

Awesome bucket list stuff Phil!!! You had way better roads to ride than I!
We're going to be in Montone Italy (central/Umbria/edge of Tuscany area) in October for 10 days staying in a villa there. I'm looking forward to finding out what my options are for some motorcycle therapy.

Not sure if you already have one, but I believe an International Driver's License is needed in Italy. I think renting a bike or superscooter on your trip is necessary.

I really liked the CB500x that I had. It was the 17" front that made me get rid of it.
Yeah, the little CBX was nice. I guess the newer versions have a 19" front.

Wow. That's a rad little mini-adventure. It doesn't take much power to have fun on two wheels on foreign land. And those roads, that scenery, looks awesome. Congrats on the surprise.

Thanks for the heads-up on the license. I picked up one at the local AAA office that's good for Italy.
