Next week I'm heading out on a bike trip out East. My cousin, our friend and I will first head to Milwaukee to look at the HD Museum (They have new Harleys. And I'll try and park my Indian out front and wear my Indian T shirt! Cause that's how I roll.  ) After that, they will come back home and I'll continue alone through the upper parts of Pennsylvania and New York State. And anywhere else that sounds/looks good, until I run out of money or find a woman. (  ) Any travel advice or tourist things you would reccomend out that way? Maybe a pretty younger sister? (  )

Sounds great! My wife just looked at this post. She said, "he better find the woman before he runs out of money". 
I try to aggravate one person a day. Today may be your day.

I used to live in NW Pa. (Oil City) and learned to ride there. Plenty of forests and 2 lanes. If you have time stop at the very first oil well in Titusville, Pa and then head up to upstate New York. Stop at Kinzu damn before you leave Pa. Hell you might as well keep going up to Maine and have some good lobster.

Good luck with it all...though not the t shirt...in my whole life and over 40 bikes I've never been prepared to provide free advertising for anyone.
I took the Road Less Travelled.
Now where the ****** am I?

Around here we have people sporting Harley gear who can't even ride motorcycles. 
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

Thanks for the suggestions, fellas. But toooo late. I was out about 9 days. Wisconsin, Canada, New York State, Pennsylvania, Philly, Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Illinois, and home. The Milwalkee HD museum,Niagara Falls, The Penn Museum in Philly, Constituition Hall, Monticello. Beautiful roads, only about 15 minutes sprinkle of rain, 3400 miles. Most beautiful spot? All of the Blue Ridge Parkway I was on. Funniest spot? The brass plate marking where Ben Franklin out house hole was. (His entire house is long gone.) Lousiest campground? A State Park in Kentucky which was "bug city Central".

Didn't remember you lived there. I'd have seen you if I had thought of it!
