I like the 3rd one.

Welcome, Benton. Pete and I were out in Austria a couple of years ago, visiting the Grossglockner. You have some seriously good roads out there!

In deed, i didn't understand this joke

Yes, concerning the streets, i love my country.
Esp in Salzburg and Tirol, there are very very lovely mountaintracks, with a lot of beautiful serpentinen (don't know the engl word, means a road going upside like a snake 180° curves.

So first of all i'll have to get the galdius.
I tried out the GSR 600 last year cause i loved it's styling, but i'm used to a 2-cylonder bike. So my eyes got shiny in december, when i saw the first pic of the gldius, it has the style of the gsr (not similr but ...) and it gets 2 cylinders, and the awsome engine of the SV650. So i had to have this ride.

A 180 degree bend like that is usually called a hairpin, or a switchback.

I've just removed the stock can. It's not so quiet now. Sounds very nice
