    Good question, one i'd like to know too. Always wanted to do it on an old chop or in a 59 Cadillac.

    I watched the Billy Connolly series where he did Route 66 on his Trike. was a good series. Although the roads looked straight :

    I don't think it'd be a "ride the bends" type trip or you'd be exhausted after 14. Days of solid throttle-pinned riding! It's more side back, enjoy the scenery and experience America

    We watched the Billy Connely series too, looked brilliant!
