I know I read some where on the forum about a certain area of the longs where it seems to flex more. I just can't seam to find the Picture/information. Can anyone show me where that area is?

I quite argee with the no cage on the street. I did that for several years and found out that the intrusion of the upper side bars can be painful. Fortunately, I had a helmet on when this happened.....but it still knocked me goofy....goofier?
My latest cage itteration has no upper side bars, but is impractial for the street...unless you leave the top off. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Power is not the "flexing factor", tire grip is the main culprit (& possibly a cast iron lump behind your head). I found out years ago that fairly grippy tires (the old Victoracers) couldn't be used to their full extent on the street....not if one has a lick of sense, anyhow.....just my .02, as is all else. |
