Those are really cool bikes.

Agree. The bike and rider took a bit of a beating and held up.

wonder why the police used the rt instead of the gs if it could do all that?

Wow!!!  Impressive for a rather LARGE "Dual Sport" bike!  

The only issue I was was that the Twisted Throttle top box doesn't lock very well... the lid poped open multiple times.  

The rest of the equipment, however, took quite a beating and stayed intact.  

Not something I'd try...  uglystupid2

He may need to check the Valve Lash after that demonstration of riding and the BMW endurance,

He's ready for Paris to Dakar I think.

OK Wayne, you're next.  Wink  Great riding, makes my old bones hurt just watching it. I used to enjoy riding a "trail" bike offroad simply because they're so maneuverable, but that wasn't exactly yesterday. These days if I'm going offroad I stick to a four wheel ATV. Good video, guy has some talent.
