just how nice it is to ride on nice sunny warm day, had such a nice run today, the bike was happy, several times my rear seat over speed warning device went off but other than that   :good2: :good2:

Does your "rear seat over speed warning device" provide an audible warning or is it an immediate poke in the side? :-)

 it also works for several hours after you have stopped riding.

That sounds like an aftermarket down grade, my bike has no such device. Maybe it is because it would not be compataible with Wife 2.0. However Wife 2.0 does affect ride time, frequency and upgrade funds. Thankfully not speed.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

My wife is really good about what I spend money on, almost never a complaint but lately she has asked me to slow down for a little bit. Yes she known about the new shock from RPM. The other shoe will drop when I tell her that now we NEED to work on the forks after I get the new shock. I must admit motorcycles have been a large part of the summer. With buying the DRZ, new gear, two sets of tires, other mods and upgrades. The goal  is to have the bike done by WCR next spring other than new wheels (want to wear out the Avons first).

 :rofl2: my wife is actually very supportive and has never questioned any money spent on the bike in fact she will often encourage me to get the bike related things I need, Oh an bits for the boat and the 4x4 as we both love spending time together even after 30 years of marriage but she does mention "the over speed bit" over the intercom when I am traveling at what the police would term an excessive speed for an extended period of time.

I get more complaints in the car than on the bike.
