no ride is a fun ride given the recent winds and weather, i would just get wrapped up and get on the motorway 200 mile will be gone in no timeVirt wrote:Riding over to Bristol tomorrow morning. I have three possible routes :
1 ) Motorways : 210 miles.. 3 hours ( according to satnav.. like it will take that long)
2 ) Avoiding motorways and using dual-carriageways and stuff : 202 miles... 8 hours ( according to satnav again )
3 ) Windy roads : 225 miles... 7 hours ( I'll let you guess what was gonna go in here )
Now granted it's not difficult to beat the satnav, but daaammnnn. Kinda forcing me into a corner I don't wanna be in. I'd rather not sit on the motorways for agesss
You might want some bar muffs mind, one thing the gixxer is great for is its wind protection on the hands with the shape of the front fairing your hands dont get wind blast like the storm does
i remember one time after doing about 100 mile or so on the storm and coming off to fill up again it was a cold day my hands wouldnt work i couldnt grab the clutch or brake ended up sort of using my wrists wasnt fun, i got bar muffs after that
