city riding: you *can't* go everywhere a car can go.

A reminder for these crisp fall days, when piles of leaves (or trash...) cover those weird mini-medians, road repair plates, squashed safety barrels, cones, you-name-it: remember when riding close to the gutter or turning left, your high-performance dual sport motorcycle *can* go over anything a beat up gypsy cab can -- but four wheels give that cab a much greater range of safe angles to hit things at, whether its driver knows they're there or not! This message brought to you by the letters "O" and "W", KTM part number 6000701304470, and a rider who finally found something hidden under all that fall road crap that his bike wouldn't go over sideways.
