I say do this at Road America, too. It's Harley's backyard, and who doesn't want to see big v-twin cruisers pinned down the track's three long straights. What could possible go wrong?
I was thinking the same thing. My Multistrada 1260-S came with bags. It would be a ringer in that race.
I think there are gonna be some advancements made in safety equipment and accessories due to this. Chaps with knee sliders. Wifebeaters with aerohumps and deployable airbags. Brain buckets with quick release mechanisms. Carbon fiber cupholders. Tire warmers for 240 width rubber.
See, that's your problem right there. Trying to please too many people with that two friends shit. I got NO friends and I don't have to hear none of that shit.
I think this will be awesome, there are some pretty profitable companies, like Drag Specialties, that are going to put some money behind this. It looks like there are some big name riders that are going to be signed soon, for big money. It could be that they are trying for former Superbike winners and top runners. Consider if the Hayden Brothers, the Bostrom brothers, Jake Zemke, Josh Hayes, Larry Pegram, Danny Eslick and Jason DiSalvo really sign the contracts to run these things. It will be crazy.
I'm holding out for Kenny Sr. and Steady Eddie. They're both friends of Rainey's, so it could happen.
i can’t see any of these people riding these bikes unless they’re like superbike spec. not one of these racers is going to want to go down the corkscrew with single piston front calipers and 10° of lean angle on a 600lb bike. fuck all of that. although i just saw on the instagrams that indians newest bagger has some nice front brembos that look like they came out of the ducati parts bin.
Appreciate it but you'll want to hang out, text and do things together like go to the movies, watch NASCAR and beat up Hippies together. The beating up Hippies part is a draw but the rest, nah. I'd call in sick or just not reply. I think we're better off as social acquaintances and I not loan you any money.
are they aftermarket cause i just had to google that shit and none of those brakes looked worth a damn. here’s the indian i was referring to.. seems to be a custom as well. https://www.instagram.com/p/B8U7xSKgx3v/?igshid=16vac8jmy3w2d
