Dont forget that nasty little PM fight!!!!  :thumb:

don't brake on the turns.
at home, put on your helmet and leave it on for like 30 minutes (with open lid), just so you get used to the feeling.
when 'walking' the bike, keep some weight against you... NEVER balance the weight on the center when you are moving the bike and you are not sitting on it (it's known to fall away from you...).
with bike on sidestand (and OFF), sit on it, put helmet and gloves and just practice seeing how many controls you can manipulate/remember (the gloves will feel clumsy at first, but get used to it).

that's on the top of my head.

oh yeah... if you are gonna drop a bike, practice such procedure with the ones provided at the msf course.
Caturday yet?

Just the same dual-sport...  It's pretty funny, the seat is higher than my GS.

Actually, it's a pretty short story.  She took offence at Mak posting guns for sale semi-legally, and quit.  :icon_mrgreen:

That's too bad.... I miss her comments.... and her photos.   :icon_mrgreen:
