It rides great, just gotta remember to take corners a bit wide.

I'm in the process of putting an extracycle on my breezer 8. Now I won't have any excuse for using my truck at the feed store.

Nice! Wouldn't want to take it up a hill though.

That's no SUV, not enough cup holders ;) Looks like a fun ride.

Nice setup.:thumb: Have fun and welcome to the dark side.:D

BTW I've got to get a trailer so I can haul the fuel for my fire home.

That rig climbed a lot of passes in Colorado with no problem, it's the engine not the bike!

True, but the mechanical differences between different bikes do make a difference; some are harder than others even with the same rider.

My Hardrock has more cup holders than my work truck.

I've just gotten a Raleigh Sport to take the place of my Explorer for trips to the grocery store. I put in a French style basket in the front and am contemplating newspaper baskets for the back.
