Someone (Glenn?) replied to a post on shifting a while back saying "ride it like you stole it." Finally got the chance to do that today after about 2 week's worth of shakedowns. Wow! And still some RPMs on the scary part of the dial left over for the next ride. Best $650 I ever spent (well, don't tell my wife about the Partsnmore invoices...).

Not me, but I love that attitude!
P.S. A quick search shows our very own Guder and 79cb750f seem to propagate that sentiment  |

That may have been me although I don't post much here. It's my signature. Finally got to get the RPM's up on my CBX too! |

My ex-wife was looking at a small displacement cruiser and I sat on it and mentioned that the speedometer does not go very high. She says what do you mean, and I said that my bike goes faster than that in 3red gear. She kinda just looked at me and shook her head.
One more reason to divorce her. |
