Wicked suck **** Trout ..........but they are okay tires I suppose .......but gotta tell ya I spotted a **** load more Power Pures on Sportbikes down there !
Nope, I don't need to suck **** to other mods. (just to Gregg... )
Great tires, tho. I didn't know Jim had them, too, till we got down there. That was pretty cool. He had a pile of miles on his, too.
Oh, and just because some peeps buy race tires....... doesn't mean they know how to use 'em....

Anyway..... here's a little preview video I made of a dragon run. Video is a little shakey, but what do you expect with a flip and tripod electrical taped to the grab bar... lol..
I just let the flip software make this vid all by itself to see how it would work. The original was like 20mins.

Sorry to crash the party boys but I'm rapidly turning the colour of those trees! Keep the vids and pics coming though. That looks like a hell of a nice place. Even looks as though somebody gives a **** about the roads there too. If that was here, there'd be patches and spots of loose gravel all over the place. Many cops about or are the speed limits high enough to allow fun on the bends without the paranoia? Bikes everywhere too by the looks..some slow ones that sound like they're missing on two cylinders. That guy in one of the earlier vids was scraping the hell out of his boards but hardly leaning over..different strokes I s'pose. Any footage of 'Sparky' going ape on his scoot?

Thumbs up

No worries- come on in the waters fine! The roads are in good shape. The dragon seams to get good care and from the state and the locals. The killboy guys actually have leaf blowers in their cars to clean up the corners.
Right now the Dragon is closed on the north end. This makes it impossible for emergency crews to come from that end so they have alot more police in place for now. The speed limit is 30mph, as Doug found out when he got clocked at 43. The cop was cool though and let Doug by. You don't need to zoom the whole thing to enjoy it.

Warm soapy water - wait for the bugs to soften or you'll scratch it...........

LOL... I give full mod respect..... even tell you what great taste in tires you have, and you repay me with a threat? Pffffftt... (as you say )
I shall slap you across the face with a fieldsheer air perf glove and challenge you to a duel (possibly involving banjos!)
My integrity will stand, even against the most embarrassed and scorned of the irishmen!

I was wondering the same thing on this, Jim. I think we should all go through the pics and figure out what exactly we want for ourselves and then coordinate with each other to see if it will line up right for some good group deals??
Not sure how else to do it.
I'm going out to visit some family this evening, but I'll try to have mine all picked out by tomorrow.

Oh, and Dave... more to come.
The roads were actually very good out there. You're right, they keep them well maintained.
And no, unfortunately we got no footage of "Sparky"....
I wish we had, though.
