How was ryding in Yellowstone? I want to do it but the wife is afraid of bison as they don't like motorcycles.

Yellowstone riding is great, no problems with bison at all.
Had a motor home coming the opposite direction as us pushing a heard down the road, some cut between us and the car in front of us. They are accustomed to the cars and bikes so unless you do something stupid like trying to grab them, or move to quick so they take it as a threat, there is no problem.
Had a guy on a Harley about 4 cars up from us, he had straight pipes and no mufflers, and i think he was new to ridding, because he revved it up to about 3000 rpm every time he had to move forward 5 feet in the stop and go traffic. They even ignored him and all the noise he was making.
We also sat on the edge of the road in Custer National Park in SD watching some bulls fight over females. When they charged each other and banged their heads, there back feet would sometimes leave the ground and you could fell the vibrations in the ground. They were so intent on each other that they didn't pay any attention to the group watching.
In Yellowstone at about dusk, we had to wait for the elk to get out of the road before we could continue, sometimes it was a 15 - 20 min wait.
Safe Rides,

... Motorcycles are kind of like Baskin Robbins... You're looking at 31 flavors of ice cream, don't you kind of want to know what they all taste like?...
