    Break in Long Distance

    R18 vs Harley

    I am 70. R 18 is great. Practice slow turns, use proper technique. Learn emergency braking. And you will be fine.

    Dropping the bike

    These trainer wheels are so pathetic. To master U turns and slow speed turns, learn the simple technique of friction zone while keeping the head and eyes turned. It is easy to practice figure of 8s and U turns even on a heavy bike. Highway patrol police officers do it all the time.

    Which year to buy

    I think it is an amazing bike. I rode around 50 miles yesterday on I-85. It was pure pleasure. This bike is a poetry in steel. By the way what do the abbreviations NOS and TC mean. Thanks for your reply.

    Dropping the bike

    Hello. Here are my 2 cents. NEVER use the front brake at the final stop. And keep handlebars straight. Handlebars turned and front brake on will pull the bike like a magnet to the ground. Practice by stopping the bike with rear brake only ( final 2-3 feet).
