Well ive been fortunate enuff to have been on vacation all week so seeing as for a change the weather man dropped the ball all week its been splenda riding conditions all week andhave had my first real taste of riding again instead of just recalling it from memory.Although the 03 is alot different from the89 i was on last season same rules apply.Im all about the ride so ive just been cruising the past few days and i must say i do enjoy the RR alot more now that ive had a good few hrs on it.It handles extremely well and is even more agile than i had first imagined.In my mind its worth the time and effort ive put in to acquire such an eloquant machine. More of the same next week so i guess it will be time to ride ride ride..

when is riding season? i have no idea since it rarely drops into freezing down here, haha, i had to be a dick, sorry guys. ^_^ one drawback is the humidity will overwhelm you and make whatever temperature it is outside feel 20 times worse, cold and sticky and hot and sticky, thats our seasons, lol. oh, and the floods and floods of mosquitos, those are fun! when your not moving, there will be at least 15 of the bastards biting you at any given moment, and if you are riding, your helmet, shirt, pants, bike, etc, will be plastered with mosquitos and lovebugs and junk. i HAVE to wash the bike and helmet every night, uuugh! so i pay the price for the warmth, if only i lived in miami, or the like... ^_^

Thats a pretty sweet picture. I cant see how you guys can drive in that freeway traffic, 80-85 with all that... I get into some heavy traffic around here but I am sure its nothing like Cali
