YES WE WERE ON HOLIDAY so riding gear was somewhat limited but The feeling that your feet were going to arrive first I found very un-nerving. it also displayed the feeling that it had a hinge before the tank very wobbly it had little to no lean angle, me shaving off copious amounts off the running boards, it was painfully slow and felt a little like I expect the rotivator must have driven like in the good life. we went up into the hills a place called Jerome where there were some bends The mrs was really uncomfortable on what passed as a seat and all the bends had to be carefully negotiated as though the road was an ice rink ( i was by this time worried I had shaved off so much foot board that I'd lose my deposit
here is the offending Bike and Mrs
not often the youngest in town!! let this be a warning The "quid pro quo" for hiring the bike was that I had to ride a horse up monument valley! this really should put you off
Agricultural doesn't even come close
The horse or the Harley?

Re: HELP ME...😱
HTF did he manage that? Throttle still on as well as the front brake and the giant rear overwhelmed the skinny front tyre?

Re: HELP ME...😱
I think he was hoping (fantasising) that he'd be doing a rolling burnout but panicked when he had traction, then grabbed all the front brake.Skub wrote: Sat Dec 10, 2022 4:51 pm HTF did he manage that? Throttle still on as well as the front brake and the giant rear overwhelmed the skinny front tyre?
