Lessons learned/tid-bits on a motorcycle

[Jvs]

Just a few things i thought of when day dreaming about getting out and riding again..think this winter is killing us all. 
Practice and training saves lives; Your loud pipes are just obnoxious
Semi's Kill, avoid them at all cost.
Front brake is the only way your gonna stop soon enough to avoid something in the road
Look into turns
Following too close won't get you there any faster
No, wearing shorts and sandles doesn't add horsepower (Squids)
No my ride can't beat a "Busa", especially not a certain orange and black one seen around town
Adding turbo or NOS should be considered assisted suicide in the lower 48 states
I don't drink, I don't smoke; I ride.
Waiting to get gas until reserve comes on will result in you exploring the country side...on foot
Waterproof gear unfortunately is never actually water "proof".

Anything to add?

I like the countryside

The stock suspension is appropriate for perhaps 5% of the riders who will buy the bike.

Something I learned... It is a shear PLEASURE to work on a Piaggio built engine.

So nice.
So smooth.
E 'una moto meravigliosa!


You know?  I don't get all "antsy in the pantsy" like I used to in the Winter... I guess I don't know why.

Great video!, but dreadful corny narration.

Too bad there was so much music, the few times you can hear the bikes they sound wonderful.
