So glad to see you wearing gloves. As a rider, every time I see someone riding without them, I cringe. Just wish people would realize that if you go down your natural instinct is to catch yourself and at that point your hands become road crayons. I have seen it on two occasions, and it is not pretty, no flesh on their palms. By the way I love the bike. Wish we were like Europe with people riding small displacement bikes. I live in Harley land and that is about all you see on the roads around here.
Thanks! I had the gloves on because it was around 40 degrees out when I took this ride, but I couldnt help myself and had to get out there. I need to be better about wearing gloves and a helmet though, I dont travel far on this, usually just around the neighborhood, but anything can happen.

As a side note, have you given any thoughts to rear view mirrors? Just a thought on my part.
I have a rearview mirror for it, I just have to trim the handgrip to mount it and havent gotten around to it yet!
