Nice! Same exact setup as my car pretty much!

Get my springs and spacers put on next week! Couldn't find any pictures of the Sport wheels from my 13 before this was posted. I'm even more excited now! Just picked up an IPL exhaust as well. cant wait!

I think I like the newest S wheels more then the IPL ones

If you look on the 129 map there is a small road with huge turns all called Hell road. I never heard of it until I ran it with the Boss 302 guy that was there with the ATL crew.

Is this "Hell" road actually part of 129? Can you provide a google maps link?

I see you had a bike escort... Did they pull over to let you pass

Comment: I've been to this road twice in two years and will return again next year. Between the Hellbender, the Dragon, and the Cherohala... you can't get much better. Beautiful surroundings and you can get lost for days riding all the roads in the area. Plenty of places to stay and eat in the area.

I've been on 28 in both the car and bike. From what I recall it doesn't have the elevation changes of 129, but is still highly technical. Some years back, a highly experienced local (from my area) had a fatal mishap. Most times, I actually find 143 (Cherohala skyway) more enjoyable because it has higher speed limits (45 vs 30 on 129). I believe the speed limit on 28 is 35 or 40mph (45? in some sections). Also, because both are less popular than the famous dragon, tourist traffic is somewhat less.
