Reminds me, yesterday's ride, hit some taped over crack seal repairs on a corner yesterday, and that plastic chit is SLICK!. Front wheel slid out a couple inches before it caught again, made for an ugly wobble in the middle of the corner. Been a long time since I've felt that sickening lowside feeling, but it was there for an instant. That wunnerful Avon grabbed hard soon as it was off the plastic; that was a good feeling.

The wind fun I was referring to was the kind where you are in the middle of a corner and a big blast rolls up a holler and smacks you in the side. I don't have much movement on the ElectraGlide, but the Softail really gets moved around. I was blown 1/2 a lane several times yesterday on twisty roads deep in the hills. I spent yesterday riding in the eastern Ozarks, which are not talked about much in the motorcycle community at-large, much to my delight.

I do not think I have seen taped over crack seals, and I do not think I would like them.
