NQ,
Fresh back from the Kootenay Raid today. Yesterday we went for a spin, four of us crossed Kootenay lake on the ferry. Friar, myself, a new friend Rene Louis all on BA's and Todd, another new found friend on his speed triple. After the crossing there are 70+ kilometers of world class twisties all the way from Kootenay Bay to Creston BC. Rene led, followed by Friar, then Todd and myself. Except for maybe 6 Km's, everything was strictly 3rd and 4th gear, with about half of that slammed up against the rev limiter in 3rd gear, at least for me. Rene and Friar don't realize there's a difference between sport bikes and cruisers!!! I for one, was fortunate to stay in the same time zone. Tailing that speed triple for 70 Km's was a treat, what an effortless ride! Obviously a Speed triple piloted by a gonzo tattoed Canadian will outperform a BA, but I think Todd was somewhat impressed. Ride safe Canadian friends.
Hummmm.. what does a triple go for these days?? Bad thought, bad thought.
