Absolutly, I can corner better on a R1200GS BMW quicker than on my K1200S. Give me a Husquavarna 610 and I will take on anybody. Long fast sweeps are one thing, tight pegs on the floor twisties are something else.jmillheiser wrote:Standard or Motard I would believe, especially at deals gap which is a very tight and technical road. Most cruisers come out of there with major scrapage even if they take it slow.sapaul wrote:Does not suprise me that the sport bikes get overtaken, they do not corner the best of all bikes, it usually is the upright acceleration that allows them to go quicker. there are a lot of cruisers and standards that corner quicker and more stable. Vector I am so glad that you had the opportunity to do something this
I think a Motard would be the perfect bike to run the dragon on.

I spent my therapy money an a K1200S
The therapy worked, I got a GS now
A touch of insanity crept back in the shape of an R1200R
