So, got up early and met George ( 2009 Tuono this time) and
Tim (2018 BMW S1000RR) for breakfast at Alice's. After many cups
of coffee we set off down Hwy 84 and Pescadero Rd. Tim is VERY fast
and forced us to up our normal pace into the "Whoo hoo!"
zone.
Took a slightly different route resulting in around 200 miles.
The ZX did great. Had a blast.

Glad ya had fun!So you rock an roll yer beastie with that pumpkin on the back there?I think I'd be removing that for stability?...Have fun Mad...sounds like a great ride!

Yeah, the trunk spoils the otherwise semi sleek style of the bike but it comes in handy for
stowing the electric vest and other crap I carry. I used to haul ass with my wife on the back so
I'm pretty used to weight on the back anyway.
The Big Girl handles pretty damn good even though she's heavy....my bike, not my wife.

Mad

I have the trunk 'dingleberry' too, and I can't even tell it's back there. I'm not exaggerating. Take it off, put it on, put stuff in it, empty ... no difference, none I can tell anyway.
