Couple of times he looks way past 45°. The one time he scraped a peg. He full lean. All the bike will do according to Honda.

To be honest I only watched a bit of the video.
Never saw a view other than from his helmet.
If was enough to notice how high his bars are. Mine look at least an inch lower. I believe that's a 2017 in video. No idea if the bars are the same but his look high as hell.
Ill put this here. Yamaha R1.
I've been kidding myself. Since a teenager I rode bicycles. 1980's stunts. For those that were there. I did "Freestyle ,flatland". Haro, Redline, Mongoose, GT. Hutch was my favorite. My teeth are still chipped from a wreak. Then it was dirt bikes. Then street bikes. In between, I've road horses. Open wind and grunt between my legs.
Makes you wonder why I hotrod cars.
I'm kidding myself. Forget a car. Give me a motorcycle. And make it fast.

Looks like I'll be taking my truck back to the shop. Transmission has a major delay in engagement in reverse first thing after start-up. And sometimes a delay in engagement in drive first thing after start-up. And now, the ignition switch is slipping . GGGRRRRR!!
But, I did get the front passenger area cleaned up a bit.

'01 Dodge king cab.
Had tranny rebuilt back in Dec., and they said it was still under warranty. Guess I'll find out come Monday. I REALLY hope it's just a minor fix. Hard as hell to be without any transportation for three or four days. And I hope the ignition switch is tied to it and fixes itself. Vehicle maintenance/repair costs are just getting tooo damned expensive.

I have a 2010 Tudra with 19,000 miles on it.
No, of course I don't get out much.
I drive it enough to keep it rolling.
It does need to be washed though as my favorite place to have it done double/maybe tripled their cost, cut their employees down to one third, so the wait to have it washed is interminable. I quit going there...
Doing it myself, every 3/4 months now.

Researching it. The transmission is the biggest complaint. With some reports saying it being change out 6 times. Other reports mentioning the pressure solenoid. (Located behind the fluid pan.)
I sold Dodge 2003 to 2005. The story go's that the contractor that was building the transmissions was messing them up. Causing Dodge to go a different direction on quality control. If a part is found to be substandard. The assembly line is stopped and the supplier held liable until the part is corrected. The contractor paid for the recall.
Automatic transmissions behind the diesel wouldn't last very long. Too much torque and not the right transmission for the application. It also helped Dodges resale value stay at the bottom.
Mercedes-Benz fixed that when they took over. Rumor had it that Dodge would get a Mercedes diesel. Never came true.
As for the transmission problems. It gos hand in hand in some the earlier trucks. Making them famous for it.
When I bought this, it barely had 40K miles on it. It now has close to 140K. After pulling a 29' fifth from Mineola to Big Spring, from Big Spring to Midland, and from Midland to the Lake Whitney area, with multiple and various flat bed trailer towings back and forth across Texas, I'm surprised it held up as long as it did. Not to mention the everyday use and abuse of city driving, muddy dirt road driving, and cross country driving. I don't believe this truck was made for that kind of use and abuse.
Of course not. It's a Dodge.
Sigh.

So glad I bought a Ram and not one of those crap Dodges that y’all keep bashing.

All things considered, and the reasons behind purchasing this truck, it really has done a good job.
