Given the growth of the sport touring segment, can you do a video on a typical sports touring bike - say a Yamaha FJR 1300 - on desirable handlebar and grip set up, optimal foot peg set up, and suspension balance. Egonomics are critical, given the time spent sitting on the bike. The dealerships tell you "everything is adjustable", as a sales pitch - but not what good tuning adjustments are for you when you buy the bike.
We can try to acquire one from an owner in California and go through the DMT process. That will need to be a stock bike and we will need to do a base A model and an electronic AE model.
Dave, you have two sore legs? A knee and ankle? Have you thought of wearing padded slip on knee socks? Always kneeling down resting on your knees while measuring and adjusting, not good for them long term, protect your knees Brother.
What a patronising man. “Do you understand”, assuming no one could be as much of a genius as him. And he’s measuring some forks. As I said, patronising.
A teacher always asks for confirmation in a full conversation that the knowledge presented was given in a clear and understandable format so the student can build knowledge in easy steps.
@@catalystreactionsbw As a teacher with a few decades' experience I totally agree with you. I'd be only too happy for you to work on my bike and ask me if I understand.

Get well soon Dave

That was from a crash during a race and I'm going through a fairly long rehab. Thanks for asking and the suggestion!
@@catalystreactionsbw Hey Dave, you were looking brand new on Wed at Barbagallo, glad you're bouncing back quickly :)
@@robbusa69 Getting there steadily Rob!
I thought she was a vampire
The girl looked like a student with whom the class professor is talking and she has no clue whats going on :)
Dave: “Do you understand?”
Girl: Nods slowly (doesn’t understand one word)
😂
