The realisation that I'm too old and arthritic for superbikes
#4
Doesn't really matter what bike you sit on or ride, if it's different to what you're used to then different muscles come into play for a few months which can cause leg cramps, aches & pains, etc, for a few months if you're not generally physically fit.


Thing that put me off the sports bike riding position was the restriction of head movement once you look up ahead of you. The crash helmet would just sit on the collar of my jacket making it very difficult to look around properly, which is even more undesirable when it's pissing down with rain.
Add to that the extra strain on the wrists and i found myself looking for something in a more upright position.


More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
