Took a beautiful ride out to cortland saturday. Took 5 to 80 to 26 to 41, the roads were beautiful. 20 was really the only boring one, they rest were all curvy but just kept the throttle at about 70-80mph and cruised. Great scenery. Then took at trip around caroga lake sunday and back home. Did 450 miles on the bike between sat and sunday, my ass was killing me. My poor girlfriend was on the back the whole time, tiny little sportbike seat, She's such a trooper!

I loved the Travelcade seat on the ST1100. I could ride for days with that one. The Sargent on the VFR is a big improvement over the stock seat, but is only good for a couple of hours. I think sport bike seats are too narrow to distribute the load as well as the ST or cruiser seats.

Now you know why I have so many pair. (I have more than I had remembered) I have cold weather gloves, perforated hot weather gloves, 2 pair of everyday gloves, and the HELDs. Many times I wear one pair to work in the morning and a different pair home. Still need to find a good pair for the rain. Most of the water proof gloves are insulated for cold weather. I want summer weight rain gloves.

Just picked up a ram mount for the bike. gpscity.com has ridiculously low prices on ram mounts and bike stuff, shipping was only like 2.50 as well. Good place and highly recommended, fast shipping also
