FJR’s just plain “ole” look good. Especially when complimenting a beautiful background scene.

OK, what part of the state is this at? I occasionally ride my FJR down to Tulsa from central MN to visit my daughter.

Looks like a nice place to stop and visit.

Its on Hwy 51, SE of Tulsa between Wagoner and Tahlequah.

3 scenic lakes close to Tulsa: Fort Gibson Lake (SE), Tenkiller Lake(SSE) and Grand Lake (NE).

Another great biking desitination in OK is in SE OK near Talihina, called Talimena Drive. I have visited a number of times in my cage.. have to make the trip on the FJR. Its about 4ish hours from Tulsa.

Pics from Talimena Drive..54 miles of curvy roads (for TWN)
