Has anyone ever tried to get a SCR owners group get together?

I belonged to the COG (Kawasaki Concours owners group) and we had a summer ride to a mid-point location to a area kinda centralized in the US for a fun weekend.

Fun event with good people and lots of Connies in the parking lot.

Has this been attempted????

I think some local get-together's have been coordinated, but nothing on a large scale.

Wow........Anyone have a idea how many SCR's are out there? How many members do we have in the forum?

Seems like if you could get 10% to turn out that would be a good event.

I am in the L.A. area and eager to meet with other scr owners

Sounds like a great idea I am in Colville WA but will be making a trip down Hwy 1 in August..

 

[Scrambled 2018]

Not sure how many SCRS are in WA but I haven't found anyone yet here that has seen one besides mine...

IIRC there were 500 bikes made for the Americas and the facebook group has 600 members worldwide.

Honestly my rough guess would be 200 or less in North America.


I'm just north of Central Florida and know there has to be at least a few other riders nearby.

Funny I have never seen another SCR here in SW Washington. I'd think there would be a few on the forum from nearby areas.

I’m in the panhandle of Idaho and would definitely consider a meet up with my SCR anywhere in the Pacific Northwest. Any further than that and I would just rent a bike from Eagleriders.

I think we need a map where we can all drop a pin to see approx. where everyone is from. Maybe then we could find a central area to meet.

Sure, knock yourselves out.

Well done!
Even I could figure it out.
Except I don't know how you guys got the bike symbols.

The little paint can is what you're looking for.

 

[yoitsemo]

Not a bad idea..went ahead and added myself on.

Got it!
Thanks.

[Krixtoph]

Great idea, thanks for setting up!

If I had to guess where our (equally-weighted) center of mass was (and excluded myself because I'm two time zones away from all the others :crying: ), it would probably be somewhere in the Illinois/Indiana/Kentucky tri-state area. If I included myself, I'd guess it's roughly in the vicinity of Kansas City. Even for @Krixtoph, the closest person to either point, it's at least a 5-hour drive :|

Whose dumb idea was it to make North America so darn big??

If, and I say IF I were going to partake in this proposed event, I would trailer my bike to the meeting place so that I can truly enjoy the riding once I'm there. I'm too old to ride an SCR that kind of distance.

[Scrambled 2018]

Yup a little to far from Washington State for me..didn't realize there were so few scrs in the states....
