I'm slowly creeping down towards my goal weight(At 217, wanna be at 200). New job has me getting alot more steps in each day, plus the gym is directly on my path home from work, so it's easier to get myself to go.
Just got my new computer monitor today. Wow what a difference. Went from a 32" 720p RCA TV to a LG 34" 21:9 gaming monitor at 2560x1080. So much real estate.
I've been back to my regular exercise routine and I'm back to seeing lower numbers on the scales. New job has me getting more than double my normal steps.
I also have a planet fitness membership. I use the 30 minute machines but never follow the 30 minute program. It's kinda funny to watch how attendance at PF will spike in the next month or so.
Got home from my first day at work at my new job to a package of bike parts. I couldn't resist, so I had to test fit the new pegs on the FJR. A little massage work here and there and they should work. Same ground clearance, but a greater distance from the top of the peg to the seat.
I struggled with this when searching for an Accord. I hated the CVT transmission that comes in the 4 cylinder, so I tried the 6 cylinder with a normal automatic transmission. I liked it better, but still wanted the 6 speed manual. I never did find one like I wanted (EX-L with Nav, V6 6 spd). I ended up with a EX-L with Nav, V6 Auto. I'm happy with it. Sport mode with the paddle shifters is fun.
And I say that, not as a bad thing. I think this is a good market that needs more competition. A bike with room to carry stuff, but not an all out touring bike. I don't see the point of having the H2 SX and a Ninja 1000 though, so i suspect the Ninja 1000 is gonna be phased out.
For that much money, you could have someone build a turbo kit for the FJR
Seriously though, its a cool bike. Idk if I would call it a full blown sport tourer. More like a sport bike that has luggage.
I've switched from riding season gym routine to off season gym routine. Gas station food and eating while traveling has slowed my progress. I've got big plans for the winter though.
