Yes, it was 2017 but who cares! The sun was out, the roads were stunning and while the super-wide-angle camera really didn’t do the corners justice \u2013 it made hairpins look like bends \u2013 it was a stunning test of the new Softail frame.<\/p>\n
Pity the Kodak SP360’s mic wasn’t noise cancelling and that I was being too clever for my own good with the Sena Prism, which was facing backwards over my shoulder with poor framing; but chasing Nik Samson on another Fat Bob and Chris Cope on a Street Bob \u2013 to give some indication of the road ahead for the footage \u2013 with Darryl Young (I think) setting the pace, I did enjoy watching this for the first time in a year.<\/p>\n
It starts to get lively about three minutes in and then the road continues to speed up\u00a0 \u2013 not that you can tell from the speedo, which is LCD and invisible: the dial is the tacho and shows the bike pulling hard from a whiff of throttle, but then I was trying to find out just how good the Milwaukee Eight is.<\/p>\n
Spoiler alert: it’s stunning!<\/p>\n
