    May try with the seat of the R, that seat has a 1.1” higher seating position as the GT and you still use OEM parts!

    I’m 6’5” 270lbs myself and my GTR does the job perfectly!! GTR cause its a GT with the handlebars of the R, I come from the Suzuki M109(1800)R what also suited me well (foot pegs coulda been a little more forward though) biggest advantage now is with the R handlebars the steering is more direct...

    Update on tire wear on the 2020 Rocket

    Weather conditions here won’t allow to go that far though. My Metzlers were also used over the entire width on the M1800R, picture is after a day in the Eifel (Germany)

    Free Full Power custom map for Rocket GT

    German autobahn is only 1,5 hour away lol Also on the highway here in Belgium, with the risk of losing our license for 2 weeks to a month plus a ticket but it won’t take us to jail It doesn’t take a long distance to hit top speed though

    well 10 minutes @149mph or 240km/h is a distance of 25miles or 40km, I think that will do, for sure ya have to slow down for a car already at that distance 😋

    I didn't look into the tire rating yet so thats good to know, the rating refers to the tire being able to withstand the temperature genarated at that maximum speed for at least a hour, so if its only to see what the top speed is it should be ok
