@Denimhead-0 Dude, I can’t imagine that those are really called Booty Hunters? Think your Booty Hunting ship has sailed.

Freuding slip

@Denimhead-0 Reminds me of a joke. A guy is at a protest rally and he’s yelling Right Arm,Right Arm,Right Arm. When a guy next to him says Dude it’s not Right Arm, it’s Right On. To which he replies I can’t believe I’ve been saying it wrong all this time. What a Bumper!

Second track day at Sepang International Circuit. Starting to push the timings, managed to shave 4s off my previous lap time. With that said, looking back at the videos, I don't think I'm leaning right/ as much as I think I am when I'm on track..

4 Secs is massive.....Congrats

[motojobobo]

@louisbosco is that usually the case? That we lean more easily to one side over the other?
Never been on a circuit yet but hoping to do it sometime.

[louisbosco]

@Giles thanks! 4s is massive in motorsports, albeit with a softer compound I'm using. now it's time to polish and rough out the edges

[louisbosco]

@motojobobo this comes into play when cornering, be it street or track.

same as when we do a u-turn on the street, we try to keep our body upright while the bike leans over and turn, on the track, at high speeds, it's the opposite where we try to keep the weight of everything closer to the ground.

@louisbosco Those lines look awesome!!

[louisbosco]

@goosehd cheers mate! next thing to improve on is my body positioning and braking zones

DIY lollipops on the drag pipes because torque loss is a thing. Lil 14oz and a wing in there for bonus points

100 degree dive bar ride

@Denimhead-0 I had found,over the years,that when riding on really hot days, a long sleeve t-shirt,that would keep the heat off my arms,would keep me cooler. The guys that test ride Harleys in the desert,actually wear wool to insulate them from the heat.

[Jett129]

I think some of you guys would’ve liked this bike. 2005 Softail Springer Classic.

[goosehd]

@Jett129 you would be correct

[Jett129]

@goosehd I haven’t posted a picture,of this bike,in years,but with so many new people frequenting this thread I thought I’d post it. Wish I still had it.

@Jett129 Wouldn’t change a thing except maybe some fishtail pipes

[Jett129]

@Denimhead-0 The fishtails have a tendency to drag when you lean,and that’s also what most people were doing with this bike. I love a 2-1 exhaust system as it gives you the most power upgrade in the mid range where we tend to do most of our riding.

I love my bike. It gets better every time I ride
