Ok. I'll say it. Darn but you look good next to your bike! The definition of a hottie rider. However... Your husband carries a shank so he can stab people who piss him off. Sooooo...
Me and my Raven!
Nice pic. Thanks.
LMAO thank you hubby and myself both cracking up! You have my word he won't shank anyone on this forum! Cause u all rock!
Thanks!nice to see more girls riding
still wish there were more!Hey Fazer, How's the bike? Are your skills improving? Feel more comfortable?Thanks!
Hey rook! Ya I'm gettin better each day I ride I kill the bike less and less still iffy around cornering took a 20mph corner yay and have been playing around with shifting I shift later than I was. I shift at around 7000rpm instead of 5000 is I weird tho that I break to a stoplight rather than downshift so people can see my breaklights and then I downshift when I'm stopped. Just to avoid being rear ended I guess sometimes when downshifting people don't pay attention that I'm slowing down so I adapted a different habit
Yeah for sure, people don't always see you slowing down. I sometimes rapidly pull in the brake lever so my brake light flashes... Gives the driver behind me a better chance of seeing me etc... Keep up the good riding, be safe! :thumbup:
it's a good habit to gently tap the rear brake in succession right before you begin your braking sequence when approaching a stop. i usually do 2 sets of 5 taps- ie 12345, 12345- or just however i can fit in that makes sense for the speed i'm slowing down at. (just don't ever step down on the rear brake, cuz that can make u skid.)
the flashing red tail light will draw attention to the vehicle behind you that you are braking. i got rear-ended waiting to make a right turn at a red light on my 3rd week out. (crazy) so believe me when i say that car drivers often have their minds elsewhere and just aren't paying attention to us...
anything u can do to draw attention to your presence helps.

I engine brake to slow down, but I also tap my rear brake to let other drivers know I'm braking. Kind of like Deiter said, I'll tap it a couple of times, then downshift, then another couple of taps, another downshift, repeat until back in first gear.

Needed to get away from everything today, turned out to be a hot but enjoyable ride
Umm... You're missing the nose piece of your lower fairing?body positioning was definitely not great. looking at the pick i feel like i need to hang off more. Specially when i see other pics and riders knees are down with same lean or sometimes less.
some constructive criticism would be nice.
lol yea did some maintenance and torque checks before heading out and was too eager to head out and lazy to put the piece back on haha
