Saw this pic a while back and besides the shock value, always wondered how long he held that position?
“Gibraltar” 2016 white deluxe has been sold.
Been wearing flip flops for years on bikes with floorboards. Long hauls I'll ride with Keen hiking sandals. They're thick rubber covers the toes as well. With the B (which I flew int PHX on Sat, purchased and drove off the showroom floor), rode 400 plus miles home thru the desert (PHX to LA) with sandals. 85 degree weather. On Sunday, going thru the cyn twisties, my rubber covered toes actually scrapped the pavement. At 6'2" and 36" inseam have to order the Ultimate King, Roadsmith forward controls, and hwy pegs - ASAP. lol
Flip Flops == Hamburger, nuff said.
yeah, that is CRAZY. When at speed; that asphalt is nothing but a gigantic sanding belt running continuously under you.

I went down once @ 50+ mph in mountain twisties. My leathers turned to suede, my helmet looked like a grizzly clawed it and the boots took a good scaring. Glad I wasn't wearing a wife-beater and flip-flops. Also glad I didn't go over the cliff.yeah, that is CRAZY. When at speed; that asphalt is nothing but a gigantic sanding belt running continuously under you.

Guilty as charged, I will confess I ride with sandals sometimes. This pic is me on one of my VTX1800 in LV at 105 deg and I had just rode 600 miles in the desert heat and changed into this attire to ride 3 blocks to the Hard Rock Café for a VTX party. After my last foot surgery I rode a few time with sandals since I could not get a boot on. I've had 8 foot surgery over the years and if I wanted to ride sandals were my only option and No I don't recommend this to anyone it is unsafe and one wrong move and they might just call you Stumpy.

the guy who invented the second one... he was the genius!

I hate to say it, but that looks like a Pennsylvania license plate.
You certainly make a VTX1800 look small
