 There's a couple of guys on cruisers too.  I'm anxious to see how other people do at the Gap. I've never been....heard and saw pics and videos of the horror stories. I don't want to become one of them, especially since we don't have anything remotely like the curves at the Gap here. I'll be taking my time.

 I gather that the rear spring rate on the 650R is about 1200 lbs/in. That's right, twelve hundred. No linkage to make a puny 400-600 lbs/in work like most supersports have. Quote:

Just don't be a dumbass that spouts 318 curves in 11 miles. First it's not 318 curves and practically no one actually regularly rides all 11.1 miles unless they are going to the store or dams on the otherside of the gap or going home.
