That is one purdy bike. My ex-coworker had one but he was one of those 60 year old rebel without a cause guys who listened to music really loud on it instead of enjoying the smooth sound of engine. Jerk.

It's actually very comfortable, but I haven't ridden it for more than about 10 miles so far (just got it). The one thing that's odd about it is that the tank is loving massive and it takes some getting used to how wide the thing is compared to my 500.

Yes, but it's the 1520 Goldwing engine.

EDIT: Actually, at the expense of sounding all nerdy, it isn't "just" a cruisered 'Wing. It's actually almost completely redesigned around the engine. Sure, the engine and shaft drive is the same, but the rest of the bike is built from the ground up.

Video of me riding my R6 on a damp semi wet track in beginner group :) I was riding my F4i trackbike but decided to sneak the R6 out with my friends sticker on it. Its pretty hilarious watching noobs freak out cause of the track being a little darker color. I think when I made this video I had the bike for total of about a week and done maybe a 100 street miles. Notice the keychain for extra lols.

That's an awesome video, although the wind noise is annoying as gently caress.

Also I like the handlebar view - countersteering is still a foreign concept to me and watching you ride... actually didn't make it better at all. :( I can barely see the handlebars move, it just looks like the bike flicks from side to side without any steering effort.

With an increase in speed it takes less movement of the handlebars. Also other inputs like like pushing on the pegs and moving your body help.

It seems like those who are being passed are looking behind them a lot. No wonder they are getting passed! I've never been on a track, so tell me, are they being overly cautious?

No the guys who look behind them all have orange jerseys on, I'm not passing them, they're letting me by, they're instructors. They ride withing in the group and make sure no one is acting like an rear end and they have radios in their helmets they're basically waving me past when i get behind them.

Specs say the Interstate seat height is 28.7 inches. The standard and tourer are supposedly higher, but I don't know how much.

We're they always the same height? Last time I saw him was 2005 and I remember his bike not being brand new, probably late 90's.
