Short morning ride in Lytle Creek Canyon as I continue to break in my GSX-S1000GT.

Thanks! Just getting a few miles in a nearby canyon.

That’s a lot of bike happy fathers day

[@ParallelCamper]

Thanks Dave. I was actually looking at trading up to this bike prior to my accident. So far, it is meeting my expectations.

[@doc650adventures]

That bike is awesome! It is very obvious that it does not lack any power lol! Great work Rob!

[@ParallelCamper]

Thanks DOC! It is a great bike so far. I am working on getting used to the technology it packs. Turns out, I really like the quick shifter and cruise control. I haven't set up the Bluetooth connectivity yet but that is on the agenda. I'm having fun.

ROB !!!! WHAT AN AMAZING BIKE !!!! - KEEP THAT THING IN "RAIN" MODE LOL 🙂

[@ParallelCamper]

Thanks Dane. I've got quite a bit of familiarization to do to get confident. I really like the quick shifter and cruise control but I haven't played with any of the connectivity features and other information and appearance settings on the dash. I had to keep my throttle hand under control on the GXS-S750 and this bike requires that same constraint. I bought a new, smaller tank bag that arrived today. I'm having fun.

[@-robster-robster-]

Got mine last year great mile muncher , bit valve trainy on idle and vibration on cruise but comes into its own under power

[@randomlyTrees]

Wow - goes from 35 to 60 with no effort. What a great road to warm up on :)

[@ParallelCamper]

Thanks! Lytle Creek is the nearest canyon ride for me and I have been running that road my whole life as the default excursion. I haven't really tapped into the true potential of this bike as the ride yesterday was all in "C" mode (the lowest power setting). I increased to "B" mode as I was getting near home yesterday but haven't run in "A" mode at all yet.

Nice ride! nice day ! nice bike. Thanks for sharing! Happy Fathers Day.

[@ParallelCamper]

Thanks! I am really having a bunch of fun. I just need to keep my compulsion to buy more accessories under control.

[@ullithebully]

Awesome ride and the bike sounds amazing, can tell it just wants to stretch it legs , accelerates so effortlessly, happy for you Rob !!

[@ParallelCamper]

It is a fun ride for sure. I need to get some miles on it! Thanks.

[@Motoramblings]

Rob!

[@mmk9580]

Speed in miles or kilometers?

[@ParallelCamper]

Miles per hour. I am not an aggressive rider but this bike does thrill when you twist the throttle. Thanks for checking out the video.
