    Yup, that was taken at the Dragon or tail of the Dragon, or Deals-Gap, all the same place; a real “test your riding skills road”. Sight fixation or just a dork?. Did you hear the guys in the cage? “ their going to kick our A$$"…:rolleyes:

    Killer?????

    How do you know about deals gap????????
    The reason i ask?? is i use to own the only gas station /country store / motel in deals gap, right where 129 an 19 intersect .
    you could go 3 directions robbinsville, fontana, or merryville
    everyday i would close the store down at 3:00 and ride for a couple of hours, people would have to wait till i got back, all the locals knew, from 3 to 5 was my time.......lol........ after all i was the only gas station in 25 miles in any direction, many day i would come back from riding and there would be a line,
    but were i made most of my money, was hauling beer from merryville to deals gap!!!!(DRY COUNTY) even the sherriff knew where to come and get a cold one!!!!!!!!!!!

    i miss those days........and that lifestyle
    but i dam sure dont miss the ex.......

    thanks killer, it has been awhile since i thought about those day's 1986

    i have been all over the united states and this peice of road that killer is tallikng about is one of the most curviest roads in america, i forget how many turns in the 30 mile peice of road........but it is ungodley

    Have a great day, thanks for the memiores

    I'm going to make it a point to ride that road this Summer when I circle the US. That road looks awesome!

    As far as the video goes..the first one is a good example of the "high-side roll" executed to perfection. The second one? I won't even think about passing like that on my FJR, and it'll out-handle a heavy cruiser no problem..just plain stupid.
