I am with you on that; NH has some wonderful motorcycle roads. The best are in the western part of the state, far from Weirs Beach. It's hard to find a bad road when you get west of 93 a few miles. Not saying there's no good ones east of 93 though, but there does tend to be a lot more congestion.

I find it amusing to hear people talk about riding the "Kanc", like that's some special treat on a bike, Route 112 out by the VT border is VASTLY superior to 112 between Lincoln and Conway. It's also gorgeous out that way, but there's almost no traffic, and the road twists and turns along the river in a very pleasant manner. The "Kanc" only has a few good corners.
