Hwy 14 Cody to Sheridan Wyo
I haven't had the Harley over this awsome road yet, but it will surely be on my list of rides in the near future.
My wife and I just finished a trip home to Missouri from Hobbs, New Mexico where I had been working for the past year. We covered 3182 miles from New Mexico, through Colorado, Wyoming, South Dakota Nebraska and Kansas. We were in an F150 towing the travel trailer I lived in in NM for a year.
Our route through Wyoming, after a few days in Yellowstone, was from Cody to Sheridan along Highway 14 over the Bighorn Mountains. It was some of the most beautiful scenery I have seen. In addition to the Bighorn mountains, we saw deer, moose, elk and bighorn sheep. Lots of curves and the highest elevation was a bit over 9000 ft. This route has everything needed to make a fabulous bike ride.
In Cody, there is the fantastic Buffalo Bill and Native American Museum, in Greybull there is a vintage aircraft collection and in Sheridan there is Dan's Western Wear and the Don King Rope and Saddle works. All great and interesting stops.
We also did the Black Hills where my two brothers and I will be biking for the next two weeks. I can't wait to visit Sturgis and travel the Iron Mountain road in Custer State Park. I'll tell you all about it when we get back.

Hwy 14A is more fun for bike riding. If you still have your travel trailer though, 14A is harder on towing. If you are interesting in Indian sacred sites check out Medicine Wheel. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medicine_wheels
You will not be disappointed with Hwy 14 either.
