Well, I'm a guessin' a lot o' the fellers 'round here have never heard the old sayin'...It's far more fun to ride a slow bike fast through the twisties, than if is to ride a fast bike slow through 'em.

In other words...I couldn't care less how fast your bike supposedly is in a straight line. Almost anybody can twist the throttle and just hang on, ya know. The fun is to be had leaning these puppies over and trying to hit that late apex every single time.

I just did that on my BA this past weekend as me and six other dudes rode up to Monterey taking all the backroads there and back....and that included CA Hwy 1 through Big Sur...and guess who was riding the bike with the least amount of horsepower, but who ironically was leading the pack 99% of the time?

(yep! you're lookin' at him...well, at least you're readin' his words anyway)
