On May 23,2020, I was at the Harley shop at the end of The Tail of the Dragon and my wife and I noticed a few blue Road Glides across the street that had some unique modifications to include chain drive. The other day I was watching KZbin on my TV and this video pops up and my wife and I immediately recognized your bike. After watching the video it was definitely you and the other bikes. Weird how your video popped up out of the blue. Oh well, Ride Safe and I Subscribed!

There are prettier roads around there that are a blast to ride but none compare as far as how challenging it was. 441 from Pigeon Forge to Cherokee is awesome and has a full 360 degree corkscrew.

@@schamberlin5150 Watched it a few more times and that was very impressive riding through the Dragon especially on a touring frame. That road is more suitable for lighter weight bikes. Its a lot of weight to be powering and throwing a Harley bagger in those corners. That suspension looked like it planted you well in the corners and popped you up coming out. Any wobbling on the front while in the corners? Your braking was spot on. You doing a 70front/30rear before entering the corners or trailbraking? What type of braking you running on the bike? Everyone wants to go fast but few think about effective braking. I laughed when looking behind you and the guys behind you were no longer there. Around 12:20 going into the corner, those folks on the side of the road were all looking at you wondering what in the heck is that as you flew by them. There are a lot of roads in that area of East TN, NC, GA, Virginia for motorcycles. I will try to find the motorcycle map that lists them and let you know where to get one so you can plan like a week long trip down to ride a lot of them. Your a damn good rider, invest in that riding gear though because you never know. I have seen good riders lose it and skid 30, 50, 70 feet. Last thing, go search out KZbin video for Yellow Wolf on the Dragon.
