You shouldn't encourage me DirtDad. 1 or 2 compadres is all it takes for a crazy man to think he's on track.
Made my wife lead me down the road (in car) with Cruise set at 40, then 50, so I could check the speedometer. I thought it was WAY off. Even for a motorcycle. On my commute today, that I have done every day for 12 years, the Speedo was reporting crazy speeds. 70, when it felt like maaaaybe 60. 55 when it couldn't be more than 45. Know what I mean?
Well, turns out it's even less optimistic than the Tenere. Car 40 was 42. Car 50 was 53.
Just amazing. Little scooter will just effortlessly run up to 70. A real sweet spot, in fact. Real speed is probably 66 or so. But it seems even slower. What threw me was I was blowing by traffic and it just seemed too easy.
Feel invisible though. Don't like that part. Big sofa seat close to the ground. Feel much safer on my jacked up Tenere.
