BINGO. This is why I sold the FJR for a wing. Passenger comfort yet sporty enough to keep me happy.
-
If Kawasaki doesn’t release a new Concours, then I figure it’s on the chopping block. Yamaha gave up on the FJR, the sport touring market is really ready for something new.
-
I had Maxwells for the first time last week, and I was very impressed.
-
Got out for a little ride today, 185 miles or so. 78, 555, 550, and some others. Traffic was non existent.

Long-time lurker

Took the wing out for a nice 390 mile ride over to Cooper's Rock and had lunch overlooking Cheat Lake. The West Virginia mountains were beautiful, traffic was light. It's been a while since I've been on the bike, or on here
-
Oh that was a day right there. It was so hot in Oklahoma.
-
Yeah that is definitely not my old bike. It’s new owner lives around Pennsylvania.
-
Took the wing out for a short ride to Marietta to get some BBQ. It was beautiful out today.
-
Is that on route 2 in WV?
-
Oh yeah those are super special. Even the label says 4 quart which is weird...
-
I agree, at some point I’d want the connector to fail instead of breaking something else.

Dragon: fun on any bike imo. Yes, a purpose built grom does great, but I’ve had absolute blasts on heavy loaded touring bikes. Traffic is the reason I avoid the run most times. Cherohala: You get time really stretch the legs of a bike. Granted it’s triple digit speeds but damn it’s a lot of fun.

I made the best of the crap weather I was dealt for my weekend, and rode 502 miles of West Virginia (and Maryland!) mountain roads. Only got about 30 minutes worth of rain the entire day.
-
I’ve heard so much praise for the DCT. I see it’s selling point and it has its place, but it wasn’t for me yet. My local dealer has a tour DCT leftover for right around $20k, as well as a manual.

Our bikes are gonna match!
-
Worked only a 8 hour day at work so I had some time this afternoon for a quick ride. Bike path was very crowded.
-
Welcome!
-
It’s tempting. I never thought I would enjoy the bike path this much, I first was thinking mountain bike but now I’m thinking road bike.
-
So that’s why I was asking, on my hybrid I was in top gear and had no issues pedaling, so I felt like I was out of gear.
-
I was using the MapMyRide app on my phone.
-
Went out and rode with my fiancé, brother, and sister in law. They did 15 miles and I rode 22 miles. So the last 7 miles, I rode by myself. What is an average speed for flat paved bike path? My ride tracking app said I averaged 14mph for the final 7 miles.
-
Hmm, I never noticed that when I had it.
-
When I owned the MT, I was getting upper 20s lower 30s. I’d get gas every 100 miles but when I rode it to the gap I stretched it to 140.
-
It’s pretty bad. My biggest complaint of the MT honestly. Amazing bike but it’s thirsty.
