Mesh gear is great in the summer.
Look for something that has a liner for the morning. When I leave around 630 in the morning it's still pretty cold. But on the way home in the afternoon it's perfect.

i dread seeing the temp go up to 100C just cause the fan kicks in and all that hot air gets blown out by my calf area. high 20C ambient temp + hot air blown + wearing jeans = dead.

stop and go kills me lol. it seems forever before the fan shuts off (which is when i usually start going again)

Call Pacific Riding school as well.
I know they gave group discounts in the past.

1st Gear also does beginning of the year specials. I only paid $599 for my February 26th to March 1st course. The early February classes were even cheaper -- $499, but they were sold out before I pulled the trigger.

Pacific Riding School has deals too at their booth at the motorcycle show in January.

I'd go that route if you can wait.

speedy recovery EmOne. glad you're ok enough to be up and typing. with time, the bike can be replaced.

and god damn z3ger, i hope you had your visor down when that happened lol. curious, how fast where you going for that to happen? i would assume with city speeds, that bugger would have just bounced right off.

ooo Hello FZ8 buddy.

If you are interested in trading stock pipe for my Yoshi R77D, lemme know.

I'm looking for stealth ninjaness as I leave home early mornings and feel bad waking up the neighbourhood, and my version of the stock pipe is as ugly as a giant burnt tater tot on a pipe.
