I've seen Harleys get their butts kicked in winds too. Had to pull off of the road. One time east of Vegas on the freeway I heard a horrible screeching sound. When I looked at the eastbound lanes there was a full dress Harley on its side sliding down the freeway. The guy was on top of the bike along with his wife, grinding the bike down. One gust of 60 mph winds can put you down. Like the show. Take care. Vaughn
You're absolutely correct, its sad that some manufacturers are still building "tanks" when KTM, Husqvarna etc. are building powerful feather weight enduros and dual sports.
I can tell you are running a 15-tooth front (speed/rpm). It was the first mod at 200 miles on my bike. The rear ABS will only reengage with a power cycle of the bike.
