I rolled out of bed to meet up with everyone, but the sky started closing in when I took Ziggy out for his morning walk. Decided to enjoy coffee & a pipe on the lanai...not the healthiest way to wake up, but it was nice & relaxing!

I took a 6am cruise out to Sandy's on the 675...nice &  Sunrise nothing to mention Really digging the Daytona!!! Neck & wrists giving minor barks .... But the thrill factor overrides them  Can't help you with the neck bark but you shouldn't have any pressure on your wrists. Your grip and pressure should be light enough that you could hold a canary in each hand without hurting them, or as close as you can get to that. The trick is to hold your upper body up with your core muscles. A bicycle racers trick. It takes practice. That leaves you free to feel what the bike is doing and to add clutch, brake, throttle and steering inputs easily and accurately. |

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.
