Looks like plenty of clearance!

I have been on one of those. I fell off a lot.
Bread and water can so easily become tea and toast

If we didn't have to build and maintain the junk that they design 3/4 of us would be out of work.
If they designed something that worked no one would want a different one.

Hoo boy! I had a 247cc 1958 Yamaha that was really too fast for its size. My buddy had a Suzuki that was also too fast for Japanese roads.
Whendrunkdrinking we would switch bikes. Opposite sides for foot shifts, doncha know. I'm still here.
Usta switch back in the States in the early 50s. You better know whether you had a Harley, a real Indian or a reworked one because. A badly turned spark advance could break your ankle. Or grabbing throttle with the wrong hand could break your neck.
Have fun!

Harley riders give me weird looks when I "wave" with the wrong hand!
