According to Facebook tackett was just hit by a tornado..... we lucked out timing is everything
Now reading it they stated it was in southwestern Tennessee. Someone posted it in the tackett FBI page. No doesn't sound like where we rode.

I was going to say, been riding all around Tackett creek past 2 days, we didn't have any wind or rain this afternoon.

Near Memphis 5 semis were blown over crossing the Mississippi river on I40 east bound from AR to TN. The video footage was crazy 90 mph straight line winds.

Great video, That is some rough riding!

No doubt it was rough. Your steering rack could have saved us a couple hours down time. We had one busted rack....but had a spare OEM.

Yeah I’m aware of the storm it almost took me off the road never been in a storm I was legitimately scared of until this on picked the front of my truck up and slammed it down. And it’s not a small truck. It came out of no where and I could not see the front of my hood it was raining so hard. I really thought to myself well a tornado is about to pick me up and toss me up in the air and I can’t even see it.

Remember the reason I had the extra oem steering rack is because I got the RB3 so I had an extra so they did kinda save us in a round about way!!

@snuffnwhisky your machine looked so much better at Stony with all that body roll taken out. Really cool what you've done with it.
Yea, I didn't feel like my butt was going to pinch a hole in the seat this time. Much better. I would have flopped 20 times last weekend before the changes.
