is highway on-ramps. 

seriously.  there not a lot of real twisties near me in SE michigan.  at best you get long sweepers or tight turns in dangerous residential areas.  maybe a couple of turns then back to a straight.  certainly nothing that even comes close to challenging with the ridiculous stability and brakes this bike has. 

except for the highway on ramps.  it's the only "road" that allows acceleration and has quick corners i can find around here.  not saying i'm just hopping on and off the freeway for fun all day, but when i have to, it brings a smile to my face.

Dude..that is the gayest friggen thing ever. Well, next to Nascar! 

When I lived in Ann Arbor, I watched the rice burners ride those things like 20 times! They had their own little on-ramp circuit.   [roll]
You take what you can get though in the h*ll that is known as Michigan! 

When I was living in FL, the only there was the roundabouts.  Sure enough..I would hit those things as often as possible!   [roll]

FYI..... lots of oil on the road issues related to on/off ramps.  be careful
Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar kicked me out of the band..... they said I didnt fit the image they were trying to project. 

So I went solo.  -Me
