Those aren't scrape guards. Those are to prevent the bike from going over, should you lay it down at low speed. They are designed so a single person can right the bike, should it tip for some reason, under 25 mph.

I think if you can do this with a wing - you would get mass props from the streetbike crowd

Speaking of Harley's, we are still waiting for underwater pictures of the Harley's at the end of the dock.

What is this Dragon Tail I keep hearing about? Did they make that road like that on purpose?

Deal's Gap, aka - Tail Of The Dragon, etc...

Only go there and ride if you want to get hurt by other over-eager riders who think they have something to prove by passing a car or you on a blind curve with a double-yellow.
