Took a run up to Ullapool yesterday, and back today...........
It seems like the R-1 is an easier bike to ride, or maybe it depends upon the speed you are doing?
Anyway, had a good run up, via Crieff, Tyndrum, Glencoe, Ft William, Dornie and Garve. (back the same route)
Stayed in the Arch Inn (a wee bit pricey for single occupancy - £85 ) but next time would try for the Ladysmith Guest House, which looks good.

Had a cracking run home today - the A87 between Sheil Bridge and Invergarry - is absolutely stunning, with good smooth tarmac, rather than the broken surfaces on some of the roads.
Late lunch on arrival in Ullapool
Lunch in Lochy Inn, Nr Ft William
The A87
The entire route
No photos en-route........... Once the tyres were warm - the roads were too good

Luckily, when I checked my nuts upon arrival in Ullapool - I discovered that they were still tight
