Some what off topic.

How did the bike respond to the change in elevation?

Awesome vids.

Interested in this as well. Thinner air, less power. Was it noticeable? Does the multi have an open or closed system?

very well, it runs a little better actually.

its very lean from the factory below 3500 rpm

the lower temps air added some fueling

the temp changes are crazy, that road is only 19 miles from bottom to top.

95 or so at the bottom and 40 degrees at the top.

I think you just solidified my vacation plans for next year. I have family that lives north of Denver in Greeley that I can stay with. I would love to see some or you highlighted road maps.

I enjoyed your videos as well. Your pillion is lovely! Was it intimidating riding along the shear cliffs with no guardrails? The views were spectacular.

When we got closer to the top, yeah a bit intimidating, no guard rails and shear cliffs are crazy, especially when you are looking at all the scenary, i kept it slow and just took it all in

awesome video, hows the temp there now

We are back in ohio, and the weather sucks here lol

95 degrees out there was hot, but not like 95 here.

The humidity at the most was 16% but most times it was about 5%
