Really take the test

no i didnt.......i will keep a closer eye out:cussing:

i dont believe there is much we can do about the ads, they take care of the bills and are provided by the service we get this place from.....
"the pussification of americia. it is here, it is now"

So skull2007 did you take your test yet ? & How did you fair ?

shoot....far as I understand, other then the mother ship....er company being a japenese company, Toyota is as much american as many modles of ford and chevy.....that are produced in Canada and shipped back into the USA as "domestic" cars...... I KNOW Toyota has a plant just south of town here in SA!!! THey make most of the Trucks/SUV types for toyota if I understand correctly! Ford/Chevy are just as corrupt as Toyota and others for USA parts vs. Overseas parts....and you don't even want to KNOW how many of your HD parts are "made in xxxx" (outside the USA!). My father in-law pointed that fact out to a guy that "only bought HD as it was MADE IN THE USA......"..... In law started pointing out all the "Made in xxx" on the bike....guy tore down his bike to the FRAME...replaced everything he could find that had that stamp.....down to wires, carb, fuses, etc....the bike ran, and was then all American.....but by all accounts, ran like crap! Sporties have the fewest foreign parts, Dressers the most.....go figure!!! uke: :roflmao:

Well did you take the test, it's been several months LOL

Baggers are better at doing these types of manuvers than many give them credit for, more often its the riders lack of education and experience.

I've watched a LEO turn one around U Turn on Main street in Daytona during bikeweek between two rows of parked bikes on each side, he tach'd it up, leaned it rolled through the turn scraped the floorboards and shot down the street after some numb nuts.

Jerry paladino - Ride Like A Pro is a LEO that teaches you how to do this. His video and course are good.

Here's the skinny on taking tight turns without dropping your feet

1) rev's up 1500 to 1800 RPM
2) 1st gear and feather the clutch right at the friction zone, (on off area where the clutch just engages or disengages)
3) Look - turn your head not your eyes, turn and look over your shoulder and focus where you want the bike to go
4) Rear brake only!

Now feather out the clutch and drag the rear brake, lean and turn the bars in full, Be looking over your shoulder at the exit spot, where you look is where you go.

WIth a bit of practice you can make a Road King turn in very tight.

Softails are raked out, if you raked it out more you'll have a harder time because of the geometry of the bike.

sound advise!!!
