Found a great video then post it up here. It doesn't have to be about bikes.

He better not wait too long before he gets his GS, he'll never be able to throw his leg over it.
Yeah,Lardy R3! :)

I'm not sure the rider is the same in both videos ;) .
I've watched Triumph ragging an Explorer around an airfield and it wasn't 'shadetree surgeon' riding it.
Open your eyes and you see what is in front of you, open your mind and you see a bigger picture but open your heart and you see a whole new World.

Never had a Rocket 3 and don't think I want one after watching this... they all indicate left for first half of the journey and scrape the kerb for its entirety? :whistle: I know there were 2 riders but still...

Yeah,I often find when I'm running out of ground clearance the best thing to do is sit the bike up and drift the back wheel! :whistle:
