Speaking of Wings, check out Youtube "Chester Goldwing Figure 8's" for some cool fun. Pause the video at max lean angle to get a better sense of what the bike can do. Not bad for 1,000 lbs of motorcycle.

Maybe one thing to consider regarding riding on the street is what happens when things go wrong. When a car pulls out in front of you and you need stopping power that lifts the rear tire off the ground. If you enter a turn too hot and have to lean that beast over until the hard parts...

is anyone going to thunderhill in october? tuff and i are kinda talking about it.

from the studies i've read, the thing that will most likely kill is traffic crossing in front of me, and me t-boning the vehicle. traffic moving in the same direction as me accounts for a tiny minority of crashes. i like having cars and trucks around me. it's my pack and these other...

May very possibly see you there. I'll have my white busa and black gsxr so come by and say hello. spokane's track is a blast. 7/8 mile straight, nice surface but some places have limited run off room. i can give you a few tips on how to max the fun and limit the risk. but why wait until...
