      @@TheHarleyRoadshow Totally agree with you , that's why I ride an Adventure bike , the larger front wheel is needed to negotiate the corrugations and that's just on the state highway ! I too am deeply impressed with the roading quality in the S I , it just shows how successive governments have sucked money out of the N I road taxes to fund the " tourist routes " in the south for the last 30 odd years . I live in rural northland and we've had a grader up our gravel road once in 4 years !
