On an RS the max lean angle with the bags on is determined by the bags.

Or by how much of the bags you want to scrape off

not exactly sure what a lifestyle bagger is ... but that k1300s before and after your pics is pretty striking.

...or by how far one hangs the size-twelves off the pegs...
Cool photos at the photographer's website. Although I did notice a Katoom trailie getting more lean angle than the Bug-Eyed Brick...

You're supposed to put the balls of your feet on the pegs when wicking it up though a turn.

Well, sometimes us Flat-landers forget.
And I "forget" to drag a knee once in a while, too.
But having the boot on the edge of the peg is a good way to get a warning before hard parts start scraping...

I was just kidding about that, thought it was funny with the photogs name all over the pics.
I guess the mods took it seriously though as I see they've been deleted.
Looks like an awesome ride, wish I had some pics of me like that!

Nope. Johnny bought the pics from the photographer. I think he did last time I was up there with Micki and him as well. He just had the copyrighted proofs up until he got the originals.
Just a guess but I doubt the photographer would mind people posting proofs with his copyright on them because it's free advertising for him.

What's deleted? I see the pix. There's no photg's name - obviously, JO bought them...
