Installed the bar risers today and went for a spin .

Wow , Just that 3/4 lift made a hell of a difference .

Went over my favorite little test road here in town , 2 miles of twisties in the middle of the city.

I am sure you followed the recommended speed limit...  :rofl2:
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Is a speed limit a recommendation? Well that changes things...  :good:

Here in the states a yellow sign is a warning/recommendation/suggestion. A White sign with Black text is the law/limit....

Yeah, I knew that, but it's more fun the other way.  :drinks:

OK , ya got me.

A long time ago , a civil engineer I met that designed roads and freeways told me " the posted speed limit is a farce simply put in place for safety of the public, When you see a speed sign keep in mind that road was designed for 2x the posted limit."
