Little bit of a last minute decision to put a temporary plate on the new toy I just bought a couple weeks ago.  My wife and I decided we'd do the bed and breakfast thing heading into the Kootenays.

Headed into the Nakusp area for the first night (sorry Ken that we couldn't say hi).  Stayed at a local B & B in Nakusp and got a relatively early start the following day and headed south on HWY 6 towards New Denver.  Took a left at New Denver and went over to Kaslo and then followed HWY 31 into Nelson.  Had a late lunch/early dinner in Nelson then headed towards Castlegar, Christina Lake and took in another B & B in Grand Forks Friday night.  Final leg of the run was finished off today when we had another "later in the morning start" in Grand Forks and headed for Osoyoos and finally home to West Kelowna by mid afternoon.
This was a 3 day trip starting late Thursday morning, leading into Friday and finishing off Saturday afternoon.  We were in no rush to get anywhere at any time and chose to travel at the pace we wanted to at the time.
Absolutely stunning scenery and the best motorcycling roads I've ever traveled on.  I still can't get over the road between New Denver and Kaslo.........unbelievable!!

The new bike performed flawlessly and is more accommodating for two up traveling.  Pic below was taken on the road between New Denver and Kaslo.  Road and scenery in the picture mirrors what our experience looked like throughout our trip.

Not a classic quite yet as the bike is a 2002.  Although one could argue that since Kawasaki didn't make any significant change to the Concours since its inception back in 1986 it could be labeled as one.
Connie didn't even need a chain adjustment ................ ;>) 
Just a very memorable ride.

Yes you're right, New Denver to Kaslo is phenomenal, did it last Monday, I took the ferry over to 3A instead of going to Nelson.

Well now that I can't ride the bike for work it's only after work now. I have been working a little later than I normally would, but that is gonna stop soon. I also like the pics taken at sunset.

Thanks, I bought that thing in June as a pile of parts, it's also my first motorcycle.

I've got an '83 CX650E for a winter project. Hopefully it will be on the road by spring.

That sure turned out nice Kurt. I have to say I almost did not let go of it after I rode it.

And you are welcome any time.
