I'm far from the atgatt police, but the choice of footwear from both of them leads me to believe this wasn't a comfortable ride if it lasted more...
Yep yep, got to take the 500 to the track in September. Very cool experience. Regarding your stems, I don't think those will pose an issue. The...

Yep--the ones I have are standard length, and I run them alll the way out (longest). The make some that are either 1-2" longer as well. There are...
New thought on the extended grip after seeing your vid... it's probably not this, but possibly related. They may have had to a clutch lever guard...
