        Took this last Tuesday evening. My 2016 Roadster with its swanky new Roland Sands exhaust and Rough Crafts air cleaner. Think the le pera seat is too bulky looking but it's way more comfortable than the stock seat.

                @twin, Jules took this picture just before I set off and then I posted the picture upon my return.
                Cheers, I had a blast  🙂

                  Also rode all day today,my favorite riding weather. Start temps in the mid 40s,quickly warming up to the 50s topping out in the low 60s. The reason I got involved with Iron Heart in the first place was to have great jeans to ride in a varied temperature range. Had chaps on in the morning.

                            Admittedly, I know next to nothing about motorcycles, so forgive the potentially dumb question- wouldn't the exhaust burn your thigh and butt routed that way?

                              There's a heat shield on the pipe, it's the layer (or layers) of metal wrapping it. That should keep your thigh a bit cooler, but I imagine it'd still get quite hot.

                                Yes. Yes it would.

                                    Glad that you're OK @louisbosco, roundabouts can be treacherous. The bike can always be repaired.

                                    So did the UHRs get some interesting fades from the experience?

                                      thanks @Graeme  sadly, no. all i got was this. not that i wanna put it to the test again though…  😛

                                      the bike's alright to ride off still. i had an english instructor before, he did say, australian drivers are the worst at a roundabout.

                                        @louisbosco I've found the driving standard in Australia to be pretty bad.

                                        I got knocked off on a roundabout once myself, and I've been a bit nervous on them since. Had a couple of close calls when people weren't paying attention on them too. I agree that it's not something you want to repeat.
