He wears his little doggles. He seems to like it. I think its very stimulating for him. Lots of smells on the wind while riding.
I was taking it pretty easy but the 1600cc inline 6 seems to just have limitless smooth power.

Took the mrs on a little mini overnight trip. A little rainy but not too bad.

Everything about seems a little too much. It took me several minutes of scrolling thru the menu to figure out how to turn on the heated grips

Yeah, I guess on/off buttons are too KLR.

I guess you could say it was a little moist...

I had the K1600GT and used to say that she danced really well for a fat girl. With all that torque and good tires it was pretty easy to stay with the sport bike guys out in the hills. I don't think I ever rode it two up. It was my long distance touring machine when my friends had Goldwings and Harleys.

Between the moist roads and it NOT being my bike I was taking it pretty easy. But it did seem very well balanced and ultra smooth. I could see how a decent rider could easily stay on the heels of sport bikes.
