Welcome back........ Knot! harde har har..........Jus' bite through that damn leash she's got ya a'tethered to..........we gotta go ridin....... I can show ya my bionic left shift-foot which also serves as a food catcher.... Jackrabbits, bearing .0005, at 85mph!(just kidding....) Considering how 'new' that bike was, and that I really didn't want to abuse it during its first 1K, it really pulled fine during the 775miles I had it. Fresh outta the crate I'd say 80 all day, 90 dragging, 100 downslope......un-tuned, stock. If it don't pass my tests no one can call it an adventure tourer.......... Goin in a stright line? Other than the last sobriety checkpoint, when was that last time you wanted to merely ride a straight line? Slide ooouut
