• Missed opportunity

    Darn it, I missed it. Bagger Racing League held an event at a local
    track I've been to many times and I didn't know it was happening. A
    buddy of mine races and does track days here often on his sport racing
    bikes. Great little track for watching bikes. Wished I'd have known,
    it would have gotten me out of having to go to a birthday party.

    Those guys on the baggers are nuts. I was watching some of that on YouTube.
    I didn't believe that you could get that much lean out of a big bike like that.

    THose aren't REAL baggers. They are tarted up pretty good.

    They are hopped up, lightened up, raised up, and trimmed off.
    Real shocks and sticky tires.

    You can still get a lot more lean out of some baggers than you might
    think. I took took the first crash guard off because I kept dragging it
    on the 97 FLHT. I swapped it to a Lindby bar and after that I would
    drag the floor boards instead. Most people don't ride that way, but you
    can get a little more in the corner by shifting your ass over and
    hanging it off the seat just like real racers.
