You guys need to read more motorcycle mags (I currently subscribe to 5).  I am constantly reading articles about how to ride even if it is a repeat.  MSF course here in Vero Beach FL is $350.00 and you have to have it if you are not grandfathered in like I was. I will admit I have never taken the course and don't plan on it. Still things change all the time and I am constantly thinking about riding and what I would do under certain conditions.  In Europe it even worst.  There are different stages and the end could cost $3000.00. If you have not seen the Ride Like a Pro DVD yet you might want to get a copy.  It will open you eyes as to what is possible.  I would bet if you dragged your rear break while slipping the clutch you could do it. It's not a timed speed test, it's a how slow can you go test.  And remember, practice, practice, practice! All the time.
By the way, I am not trying to bust you chops here.  Just making an observation. I do understand your frustration with the system but it is what it is... I think tomorrow (if it don't rain) I will setup my cones at 8 ft and try it with my 2011 Road Glide Custom.  :)  Happy 4th!

All very true! I learned about the push to lean thing one night when i didnt want to pull over to don gloves. I banged one bar a lil hard and was like "whoa! so thats how that works!". Not the best way to learn of course.
