....Putty Road NSW

For the foreigners, that road is quite famous in Australia. I've never been down it, but looking at the map, I can see why one might go along there on a bike.

Rode in that sort of weather a few times as a teenager and still the thought of black ice gives me the jitters!

As a silly ole git now.... no way in hell.

Thankfully, we don't see it here, unless you go looking for it in the high country in winter.

Yes, but it doesn't have to be that. Driving cars on that white stuff can be fun, but is enough to have me terrified of having to ride a bike on it.

Congrats from the Netherlands! Good to see some more young (I was 25 when I bought mine, now 10 years ago) people buying V11's! That is a beautiful color.

Feel free to send me a message if you (or anyone else from the Netherlands, but there are not so many) wants to go out for a ride!

It really makes perfect sense for me. I was torn between getting a characterful retro bike, but I also want something with nice brakes and suspension that can really handle. I guess most young riders are put off by the weight and age of these bikes.

Yeah , these bikes are HEAVY compared to other crotch rockets they are compared to and categorized with. 12k RPM , wheelies , stoppies and burnouts are off the list of things to do.  A John Deere  c/shaft & flywheel is not the hot setup for this bike.

The trouble is they are dressed up to look like a crotch rocket,  The age of the average rider cannot reproduce the stunts Johnny Knoxville and his bunch do/did in his shows either .

 Don't even think you can.

This V11 lives in the northern part of the Netherlands , there’s a lot of Dutch spinies on the forum 💪🏻
