Thanks Django.
BTW a nephew by marriage just bought an R-18. That thing is huge lol
Nice, which R18 did he buy? I have the cruiser, there is also the classic, bagger or transcontinental.
The cruiser is already 345 kg. I think the transcontinental is about 450 kg.
This is me 2 weeks ago at the Stelvio Pass in the Alps:

I think he got the bagger
Nice pic. Is there a professional cameraman set up there?

Yes, there are several around the Stelvio Pass. It's famous here in the Alps like Tail of the Dragon.

Now I know how Django has travelled soooo many miles, he doesn't even slow down around the curves... ...and no scratches on the mufflers, Django??

Nice... yea I think every serious motorcyclist has heard of Stelvio Pass, few on this continent have been lucky enough to ride it.

Well, the secret is, that I retired end of May.

Congrats Django. Been 13 years for me
Congratulations indeed Django. Hope you're enjoying it.
