Making time to ride

24hrs a day seems insufficient recently. With an endless list of things to do, finding time to ride the busa seems like a gargantuan task. Not wanting to just chug along in traffic commuting in the busa as it's simply a waste of the power and capability of the bike. All too often commuting with the busa will eventually kill the fun of riding it altogether.

Therefore I've been making a point to enjoy every ride whenever I bring the busa out. It shall not be just crawling along in heavy traffic waiting just to reach the next traffic light. When it's out, it'll stretch its legs and clear its lungs; flying and roaring.

Took it out for a ride today, didn't get to max out the bike but it's definitely not rolling around near idling rpm either. It made me remember why I enjoyed so much about riding it, the big fat torque, the endless supply of power coupled with the sharp handling (which cannot be found on a stock busa) and the confidence inspiring brakes. All these make from a very enjoyable, spirited ride in the late afternoon.

Brought it for a bike wash while I grab a bite of late lunch with Eleen and Richter. Now the bike's clean and glossy. Shall go and put up the Thailand number plate that I made during the last trip. Looking forward to the next ride as well as the track session planned in June. Till then.
