Steroid injections to the vicinity of L1, L2, & L4 this morning...hopefully this will help with the lower back discomfort that I have been experiencing for awhile now...

Hope so too!

Glad to hear it.  Back issues can be a real drag.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Sure made the right call by not going out riding today. Windward side has been under water off & on all day and under water for the last three hours and still going.

An opinion of the 1290SDR from another forum...

There are many like myself that cannot stand the way the bike runs. I rode the bike in several different variations of levels on both traction and wheelie control, rode with one or the other off, then with both off. With both of them off it felt better but compared to all the bikes I've ridden (R1, R6, ZX10R, 848, SF848, SF1098, 899 Pani, 1299S Pani, S1000RR, 675R, maybe more??) this bike was garbage. Does it have power? Hell yeah. Usable to me? Not really. Nothing about the bike was comfortable and it wanted to tell me how to ride the bike not the other way around. If I wanted to just pull up wheelies all day and see what happens then absolutely this is the bike for you. I have never been so disappointed in riding a bike. Even after riding a powerful cruiser at least gives me a smile when I get off even though i don't like the looks of it.

 I know it's just my opinion so take it with a grain of salt. At least I'm not talking shit on a bike I didn't ride or give a chance(and I had bikes to compare it to). I was actually thinking that the KTM was going to blow me away but it was exactly the opposite. Can't see how they are justifying a near $18K price tag for it.

Been thinking about the new for '16 Tuono as of late, looks to be an entertaining motorbike...unfortunately a new roof and a paint job for the house will relegate me to just thinking about it...Cry

Burn down the house and use the insurance money for the new bike?

As of last Saturday CC still doesn't have ( or isn't showing ) any 2016's.  They still have that sweet deal of a 2014 RSVR4 Factory though.....   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes
