    So you think its all about the bike you ride?

    Ive long maintained its all about the rider not the bike and watching this guy on a Goldwing kind of backs it up on a real road.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nrMQ...eature=related

    that is pretty good but I'm more impressed by the guy who filmed it while riding his Raleigh 20, backwards, with his eyes shut, while hooking out Chuck Norris, pissed.

    saw a guy on the greenlane round-about treat a goldwing in much the same way, 2 up.
    I was impressed.

    Ask Qkkid about his comment "Goldwings are quicker than I thought" on the Waipapakauri ride last year.
