Obviously you haven't fallen at those speeds. I slid 5 meters on my
butt on asphalt after falling at 55kph. The result you can see on my
posted pics.

On a Baron your eyes are about a meter closer to the ground than on
a DF. When you get over 60kph, you notice. The tiller can take some
getting used to at first as it tends to be a little "squirley" ...ie
responsive.

Yes. You can go much faster on a Baron. Why do you think they come
standard with disk brakes?

But I'm sure you won't need them. They'll just slow you down!! HA HA!

Have fun!

Baron. Is there something that makes a Baron inherently scarey at
high speed, or are some of us just more fear-free than others?
