    Well, they could maybe try making a motorcycle that will remain operational for more than a distance of nine consecutive feet. Did anyone in the boardroom think of that?

      Their newer bikes all seem to be the ones with issues. I’ll keep that in mind when I’m looking for a new one 👍

      They’re just wheelie monsters I’ll always think of that when I see a 390 🏍️
