      @@johanhechter1988 It's legal and it's safe. But safety is relative. What we're doing is no where near to what Jamie does. At the 1/8th mile he is doing over 200km/h. We're doing just under 200 at the 1/4. It's a big difference. Safety should be scaled according to risk.
      The visor is more for bikes that need that wind protection. But I appreciate your concern. 🙏🏽

      @@MayushBehari Yes, it's got some work but nothing crazy. Especially compared to the head I had before. The Intake ports were massaged a bit and combustion chamber was shaped and made smaller. The power is not what we expected so at some point I need to mess around and see what the restriction is. But for the little power of makes, it runs very well.
