If you buy their shorty pipe you'll have to move the turn signal, but with this long one the exhaust is above the indicator.

Not from Alabama, went through this road when I was staying at Lake Guntersville for vacation earlier this year. The signs were moved off to the side so I assumed it was opened back up. When I got near the end, especially with the partially collapsed section, it felt super sketchy in my truck. When I drove back down I went around.

Thank you for airing this video. One set of my Great grandfathers and grandmothers is interred at Deerhead Cove, Plesant Slaughter and Maliinda Gibson Slaughter. Their daughter, Nanny Slaughter Johnston was my grandmother. Many other relatives are interrred there also. I love your motorbike rides through Northeast Georgia. When I was in my teens and twenties i did a lot of backroad, dirtroad riding. My favorite bike was a Honda XR250, the first year they came out. Used to ride almost straight up to top of bauxite mine tailings in low gear just above idle. Very thick steel plate protected motor. I'm 70 now but I can still ride watching your videos. Thanks so much.
