90 doesn't feel that fast until you have a sharp turn or have to stop.
Plus I feel more wind pushing my body back since I sit upright and no faring. That's when I really notice the speed and feel more fatigue.
 
Bunch of parts to put on, picked up some wheel tape, new levers, new tire hugger from the one that broke before and the new brake lines. Brake lines are the only thing I'm having the shop do. Did an oil change last night the oil in it did not look that old at all but I wanted to start out knowing when It was actually changed.

On my sled it gets hard to hold my head still when I get north of 80mph...with my ass 6 inches off the ground it feels damn fast...really really fast when I need t get on the brakes for the next turn...or a :leghump:in tree
 
Rode 171 miles yesterday up past Mt Washington. The bike is so much better then what my 06 was, has so much more mid range power and you can just throw it into corners. Could be going 75ish and hit 100 so quick with no effort at all. I was thinking of doing a sprocket swap for next year but I'm not sure it would even be necessary lol
 
Traffic sucked yesterday! Mine sat for 3 years before I pulled the plug and sold it. I was just done w/ it. Plus I got an offer that I was never going to see again if I declined and was not sure on selling it. In the end it worked out much better having it gone.
