Just got back from a long ride Indiana to Utah, Ariz to N.Carolina and then back to Indiana. 14states,10days.
My first real ride since getting the SuperT. Riding the dragon was definitely a great way to close my trip. After 3 days of 13hours, 1 day of 8 hours and a final day of 13hours, the bike and I were fused and of one mind. So....
I ride the dragon 3 times. Whoa(318x3=lot of cornering) ! Even dragged pegs, something I'd planned to do on the FJR last summer but didn't happen. Came home, and jumped on the FJR to find out the truth about which bike handles better. Ok,FJR acceleration is positively mental. Why? Why is that much power accessible? I found that I couldn't enjoy the cornering because of how much speed I have to scrub from straightaways. So, I didn't enjoy riding it in the corners as much as the SuperT. It also seems like the SuperT tosses over easier particularly when you have to toss back the other way. Felt like the SuperT carries weight lower than the FJR. My FJR seemed like it was always pushing compared to the SuperT, which seems to turn in more (perhaps at a lesser lean angle) What cornering voodoo is in the SuperT? Or is it just me?
SO, a flash can wake up the SuperT to supersport insanity yeah? Would I still enjoy the open nature of the bike if I power up with a ECU flash? Thanks!
