    With any decent Dragon: that's what it takes to just tame them!

    I rode up from Decatur, Al. with a few friends, where we first attended the Decatur Balloon Festival. The Spyder did amazingly well. One of my friends, he rides a Harley tour bike, took off ahead of the rest of our group and I was on his rear fender the entire 300 + curves and I could hear him dragging his pegs on several of the curves. The only thing other than stock, is BajaRon's sway-bar and links. I thought it handled the curves great.
