I was thinking that 7 degrees sounded pretty dang cold. Have a happy ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awsmsrv Posted February 19, 2011 Share #4 Posted February 19, 2011 About the same here today, but, when I rode to work this morning it was only 27°F (-3°C). Gotta love those heated gloves. I was perfectly comfortable for my 30 minute ride. About another hour until quittin' time. Woohoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilvrT Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share #10 Posted February 20, 2011 Well, we got on the road appx 1PM and just returned about 5:30PM so, 4.5 hrs on the scoot today... WOOOOOOOHHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! The PMS is GONE!!! It was a bit chilly at times, especially when we were riding in the shade but that wasn't for long. Gotta tell ya guys, those that haven't installed the levelling links .... what a MAJOR DIFFERENCE in handling. This was my first ride after installing them and I'm very impressed. The ease of cornering at any speed is considerably improved. The tracking of the bike is much better. I no longer feel as though I'm "working" at driving this bike. If you're ok with how your RSV handles, that's fine but if you're struggling with it, even the slightest, I highly recommend you install the levelling links. Unfortunately tho, if you're short in the inseam, this could be an issue for you as it does raise the rear appx 1 inch which could make all the difference for short-legged riders. As for me, I noticed it right away and it took me a little while (not much) to get used to it but I can still flat-foot it no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
