morning ride + stupid question

[ttsquirrel]

Nice bike and pics.

One item I purchased was a Throttle ROcker $10 It is great for hwy riding which is what I do for my 1 hr rnd trip commute everyday. It lets you ride without holding tension on the throttle. your right hand can completely relax. takes a little getting used to. not good for town riding, though I am used to it.

Question about your bike. I like your rack. where did you purchase it?

Thanks! I love my bike, for me it's just the coolest object in town  
Never heard of that 'throttle rocker' here in Italy, I'll try to get some info.
The rack: I got it with the bike, at my dealer's; anyway here's the link for the rackhttp://www.kappamoto.com/ita/cat_02.asp?model=K
and this is the case I put on the rack http://www.kappamoto.com/ita/cat_01.asp?model=K48
I don't like the case but it's very comfy when you do the shopping  :mrgreen:
anyway visit //www.kappamoto.com for more info

And you have to add the tiredness I get form parking the bike...I swear....I'm so afraid it could fall down that I spend like 15 minutes checking that the lateral stand is doing its job...
So: focus on riding + emotions I get + trying to keep my butt safe + stress I get from parking my baby = I feel like a 90 yrs old.... I just need a day off!!  

The first time I went out riding with my mentor (a female rider I'd been following for years in her moto journal), I was sooooo excited. The ride lasted about half an hour, and she gave me some great tips.

I was sooooooo exhausted when we got back to my house. I pulled through the gates, hopped off the bike (as much as I *could* hope through my exhaustion), and I COMPLETELY forgot to put my kickstand down. *BOOM* Down the Baby G went. I never made THAT mistake again.  :lol:
