You need warmth to get wrinkles out not ice, then again the age of folk on here that’d probably make them clang against the toilet bowl.

 

Not in my case... Warmth only makes them stretch out more... Need cold to put everything back in place.

The brakes on the Ktm are not bad... They worked fine until they got covered in fork oil... The Ultra brakes are brembo 4 piston calipers on all corners and I was pleasantly surprised how good they are... Knowing that the bike weight twice has much... It feels like a little Honda moped coming up on hard braking.... Simply top knoch...

I'd like to see a performance vid from a standing start......acceleration up to 160kms an hour!

I suppose I could get 1 of my boys to ride one of the bikes and the other to film the race.. My money is on the harley...

Did the long way home today... Close to 800 km..... No worse for wear... I could easily do more... 

    It's like comparing a Honda gaywing to a little cb 250 like Pete has.... Comfort on a different class.. The difference is with the Harley.. You look good doing it...

The brakes on the Ktm are not bad... They worked fine until they got covered in fork oil... The Ultra brakes are brembo 4 piston calipers on all four wheels and I was pleasantly surprised how good they are... Knowing that the tractor weighs twice has much... It feels like a little Honda moped coming up on hard braking.... Simply top notch...

Ya probably.... But I think that Honda has a plastic fly wheel.. So it doesn't generate much torque..
