I plan to ride from S.E. Iowa to the Ozarks right after Labor Day, passing through Springfield, MO. What good roads do you recommend? I've done the Falling Leaf Rally area a few times.

These maps are very useful to me on trip planning, are inexpensive and worth every penny to me. Good Luck on your trip don’t ride all the roads come to the rally in June 2022.

You can't go wrong with any of the back roads in NW Arkansas.
Since you've been the Falling Leaf you're probably familiar with 19 and 21 in SE Mo. Hwy 160 between Doniphan and Alton, Mo. is a fun road.
After Springfield you could take hwy 125 down to the Peel Ferry, then over to the Push Mt road (hwy 341) south of Mountain Home.

I've hauled grain on 19 as far south as Interstate 70. 19 to 32, to 38 looks like a good way to Springfield.

I have not been on that section of 32 and 38 but it looks like a good option on the map.

Yes
We have personalize plates and I try to have something different on the front of the bikes but I still head to the wrong bike sometimes.

got, got, got no time...
19/32/38 is an excellent route to Springfield. 76/14 is a good route too (Willow Springs/Ava/Sparta).
125 south to Peel ferry is great.
16, 74, 21, 23 are all good.
All roads between Springfield and Table Rock Lake can be busy on weekends.

Thanks.
If Debbie's foot is healed enough to ride we plan to go to Arkansas in October and returning on 19 is one of the options.
I'll try to remember and check out the spring.
Southern Missouri has quite a few big springs.

Big Spring is down in that same area.

Echo Bluff State park is a good place to stay if they rooms available. First class Lodge,it’s only about 6 years old. It’s just north of Eminence. Big Springs is good too. They are rehabbing the park. Just camping right now. You wouldn’t believe the amount of water that is coming out of the ground in these areas. Cool area.
