Call me a hater, but I have to take everything from a shop's Instagram with a grain of salt. Don't get me wrong, they've been hugely influential in the scene, they make rad bikes and I know the guys down there personally. No hate being thrown.
BUT the payola or incentive for advertising is huge. For instance, the Lyndall thing..a year ago "Lyndall Black rotors, calipers and pads are the best money can buy and wouldn't put anything else on my bike". Present day: "We're proud to announce or collaboration with Brembo brake components". And there was a big thread about people (Chip included) saying how noisy the rotors were, how crappily they'd wear and whatnot.....so a year ago they were the best brakes money can buy, now they suck? Cool.
Same happened with the SDC-Works Shocks collaboration, now their pushing Ohlins. I think they were pushing the Shoei RF1200 hard, then they got a box of free Bell Carbon helmets and that's all they care about.
What I'm saying is, everyone's opinion is just an opinion whether an HD tech, on the forums, at a shop or in Hot Bike magazine (which is also in bed with SDC pushing the same products and every bike that comes or of those doors). Someone's always got bigger incentive to tell yo what's best.

Outstanding HDF Member
FWIW 122 here today. Haven't been on the bike for 2 weeks darn unpleasant, feels like the moisture is being sucked right out of my body. I hope to get a day next week to head towards your neck of the woods for a ride of respite!

I'd say fill it with ice, but that would probably last 15 minutes...
