Final goal TÜV@HD. Why? Because they know those types of motorcycles… In the end no reason for an objection or reclamation. This was the planned “winter thread”, ended in 05/2017 and (finally) documented 09/2017 but since the name is changed to the “Project2017” there is still more to do… keep you posted! -LeMarque
