What RPM do you cruise at on the highway?
#14
honeslty i get a little bored since the speed limit on the route i take is 50....so the travel is almost 30 minutes for me....do you plug in an ipod or is it safe to do so....this is my first bike and i have always had the luxury of the car and hence a radio/texting/calling/AC/etc LOL....so what do you do to make the 25 miles interesting ?

I don't use any kind of head phones when I ride. I have tried it in the past, and I am not really that fond of it, but I think my main problem with it is putting my helmet on, and keeping the damn ear buds in my ears. Everytime I slide my helmet on the dang ear buds come out of where they need to be, and it frustrates the heck out of me. Otherwise, on my commute I just enjoy the ride, and pay attention to my surroundings, while thinking about how much I really rather keep on riding, then going to work

you realize you are DESTROYING your odometer by almost 20%? I mean when you go/if you sell telling them that your speedometer is off by that much is a tough thing to sell.....
