thanks. I'll probably also look for an advanced skills course. I've participated in enough high risk activities to want to prepare for the unexpected.If you're on 136 - then probably not.
I wrote it up above, but it bears repeating: If you haven't, read David Hough's Proficient Motorcycling and More Proficient Motorcycling. Every library probably has a copy in print and/or digital.
Heh. I don't see me giving up the long pants anytime soon. I'm old enough to know it takes a long time to heal. I'll definitely always wear a helmet.I'll always wave back or nod, but I don't always initiate.
And if you're on a Harvey Danielson blasting AC/DC (in town) and rocking shorts and a Tshirt, you're more likely to get a disapproving head shake from me.
I don't know what I will ride or how long I'll keep the Kawasaki. It's fine for me, for now.
