I was planning on inviting a buddy to take it with me, but it looks like it filled up last minute.
I'm a bit nervous since I haven't really ridden for awhile, and I'll be using my newly purchased F800S, which is a bit larger and has slightly more hp (I think double) than my old R3. P/W is about double now, but I haven't fully explored the upper limits of that yet.
I've been taking it around my area on side streets, short freeway runs, and to the practice courses at DMV and DVC's parking lots. Feels good to ride again, but I'm definitely rusty.
Just looking for some advice on what to expect.
I've done about 20k miles in the last 1.5 years, but most of that was commuting. I've only had one weekend where I took it to Tilden park, but quickly learned that I need to improve my skills before attempting that again. Or maybe pick a spot that's less crowded, and maybe not so twisty.
So, if any of you have some words of wisdom to share, I'm all ears. And maybe I'll even see a couple people from barf this weekend!
