    All bikes are an adventure bike in their own way.

    They also claim to hold a world series once a year when it's only them that compete.

    It is an amazing effort no matter which way you look at it, plus they used to ride dirt bikes so they had real bikes before the Harley

    Should have gotten them to do your belt though awayatc, 4 hours...on the side of the road! Nice.

    Best check what sort of dessert they eat first to see where their loyalties lie.

    F****k takes me 4 hours just to make a call for a tow truck.....

    Maybe he modified some bits so you can do it easier?

    big hassle is to have to remove starter....
