Meat crayon

It was easy to be condescending-attgatt-y when I lived in Vermont. I wore full leathers all summer, maybe 2-3 times full mesh. But tougher here in Florida. 100+ heat index is heat stroke stuff with gear. And it’s simply hard not to ride this thing. If it would make you more comfortable I’d be happy to delete this.

Totally. I have full mesh. Jacket and pants. Have never felt such heat. On my hottest days in Vermont I was still able to tolerate it with mesh. Not here.

Dont let the haters get you going on the gear thing. To each their own. I sometimes ride with and sometimes without. Truth is at 150 no gear is saving you. Happy trails brotha

An attitude like that will make you a meat crayon too.
Just because my bike will do 150+ doesn’t mean that I’m riding that speed all the time. Protection works at normal speeds.

In todays world the Hayabusa makes no sense until you ride one.

With good slip-ons or a full system exhaust it's even more of an experience.

Hope you're enjoying and ride safe!

It’s amazing. Started in pl 3. Then a couple months on pw 2. Now daily on pw 1. I got used to it 😎 It’s simply the best experience. Especially with these flat straight long roads in FL.
