I forgot I wanted to tell you that the HD GPS really helped out navigating the L.A. area. The leanring curve was not bad at all. Granted it is nowhere near as sophisticated as the other GPS systems talked about on this forum. But for basic get me from point A to point B, it works well.
Ride was about 315 miles, temps pushing 100. Took us 6hrs including lunch and a couple of pitstops. Anne is truely amazing, she loves to ride as much as I do, even on a slightly warm day. I gotta say I LOVE this bike

. The handling with 2 up and all our stuff is so SMOOOOTH, Even in gusty winds which we had today. The cruise control is flawless, no jerky acceleration. With dragon wings and lowers open there is plenty of air circulation around rider and motor. My only complaint is those HD headsets. The audio for music sucks! Sounds like 2 tin cans and a string.
