For a short time I had a job at a Harley shop. Part of the work was pulling new bikes out of crates, setting them up, and test riding them.The review I read said it doesn't take much to be rubbing the pipes. Typical Harley, can't build a bike that corners.
At the track he was riding (NHIS) that would definitely suck hard for turn 3 - a sharp right hander up hill with a transition off the oval to road race portion of the track. In that class I'm guessing he wasn't there to drag his exhaust hard but more so just for fun of "racing" his thundering v-twin but maybe Rob will chime in again and tell us about the spark show that happened and prove me wrongThe review I read said it doesn't take much to be rubbing the pipes.

Having said that, it IS a cool looking bike.
I was working race control for this weekend's races, and we had a typo on our race list. The race right after Thunderbike was listed as Middleweight Superbile (not superbike), so we kept joking that the Harley was running the wrong class.
Maybe you had to be there....

The second one I did, a Dyna, I dragged the pipes in a turn on the test ride, turning right from the I-35 North access road onto Parmer Lane.

I didn't think I was pushing the bike all that hard, but apparently I was.
The boss man was not amused.
