Painted Silo ride

It looks good for another 1000 mile at least, if you can find a completely twisty road with zero straights.

That is how it went when we discovered it, two days of fast straight roads and the last 100k's were twisty. 

Took the wheel off when I got home, and it went flat overnight.

Do the troopers there have bad eyes???? Hell of a license plate ya got there. I'm sure it helps with wheelies.

Look at the plate in the silo pics, it is quite small. Camera lens trick with the tyre shot.

That pic in Death Valley (I think) of the very straight rd, that goes on for miles, is like what I was riding on the Silo Run.

One leg on Saturday was 303 Klm of very few bends, and no corners to speak of, and all at 160+ kph.

Wow...300kms @160+kmph - I'd be exhausted riding at those speeds for that long.

I have a Kappa/Givi screen and a deflector on top, the faster you go, the bigger the still air bubble.

Will that statement hold up in a court of law?  😄
