Spring is here in the NorthWet as well, yesterdays ride was only 55 miles butt it had some nice curvy bits. It was the first time that I've started to push the bike a little, and boy did it respond! I had a little powerslide coming out of a tight left hander that makes understand why some people like traction control! Sliding my K1200RS was a doddle, with the smooth power delivery and the long wheelbase it was fun, butt with this puppy everything happens a bit quicker!
I got the pp3s scrubbed up the edges anyway and never felt like it was getting ragged save for that one little bit of drifting.
I sure do love this bike, the challenge is using some of its potential without binning it!

We had a company holiday today and a couple buddies from work all got hall passes so we hit the road. One guy, you know who you are, wanted a 6 hour run up the coast. Uh, pass. How about Angeles Crest Highway?

Doesn't bother me but it would probably reduce clutter, and be more useful to us, the viewers, to follow your adventures in one running thread.

It doesn't really matter from a server point of view. The amount of extra space required to start a new thread in miniscule compared to our capacity. I pretty much read everything here anyway so it doesn't matter to me if it's a new thread or a continuation.
Whatever floats your boat.

OK, thanks. Some forum's users feel more strongly about it apparently. Not sure what their concern was.

the best part about socal is being able to be in the mountains, the desert, and the beach all in one day. Two out of three isn't bad.
