Ask me how I know that the pillion seat on an FZ-09 is NOT meant for riding on....go ahead ask me
I will tell you anyway, So I am out on a great ride with Greg the Pole, even though cold, rainy, foggy, and slimy at times it was still a great day. I got gas a at 11:00 am and off we went. Nice fun leisurely ride and because of the rain we were not too hard on the gas. Stopped for lunch, stopped for a few pics here and there. Greg got gas in Santa Ysabela but I was only down the top triangle so why get gas when he has a small tank and the Ten is substantially larger, right?
Ride up through Julian, down to Ocotillo Wells, Borrego Springs, Yaqui pass/S3, up 78 to S2 and back towards home on 79. Couldn't
be more than 120 +- miles. I look down when we hit S2 and I am on the E lower triangle...what?
Flip to T mode and back it down a little...there is gas in Warner Springs...sometimes...nope. Gas is getting lower....lower....brooop broooop brrrr. Oh well the Stagecoach in has gas and they are only 2 miles or so ahead....OUT OF ORDER.
I had hopped on the back of Greg FZ09 and WOW are those rear pegs HIGH. WOW is that rear pillion HARD, WOW is that rear pillion SMALL...WOW there are NO grab handles....I am guessing that when Greg came down from Canada to ride So Cal and just park at my house he had no plans of being spooned for 40 miles ::025::
Crazy part, it ran out within about 2 miles of where I ran out on Christmas day ....I swear my bike is allergic to highway 79 between Warner Springs and Temecula....
Thanks Greg.
