Who said big tubs of lard don't handle? This is very impressive.

More skill than I have, but this is more impressive in my opinion.

Very good wrestling that big Goldwing through the twisties. I am sure that was not his first trip down that road with the wing or even his second. Dave

Dave,
You couldn't be more right. Yellow Wolf did 106 runs through the Tail of The Dragon in one 24 hour period several years ago.  :flag_of_truce:

Yep, I remember reading about that guy on the bulletin board at the resort. He owns that road.

Very impressive both riders. Very humbling.
