I've been through there a couple or three times on the Strom. It's a little white knuckle on the big bike, especially when they just graded and there was loose gravel all over.

I should have the Buell back soon.... and shod in a fresh set of knobbies....
We can go hit it then. it is too much damn fun, even better when the mud is thick, it helps to slow you down so your dont get too crazy near the edges.

I need to get a helmet cam for one of the runs
The buell was fun, but I think my time through the stops was faster when I borrowed the shop XT225. fun bike.

Knobbies on the Buell!!!! Brian, you're awesome!

I'll have to go back and run the road a few more times. Get familliar with the corners so I can pick my pace up a bit. Not too much margin for error with most of the road being mega drop off!

We picked up a Pro Circut T-4 slip on off of clist yesterday.....Jets and an Uni filter are in the mail. I'm considering taking the stickers off for weight reduction and hp gain.... Gotta go out and wash the mudd off so I can do an oil change.....

I ran knobbies all last winter, it really gives the mud a lift

remove the stickers for weight savings..... but I thought stickers added horsepower !

the bike is pretty light, the passenger pegs could stand to come off though.
