Anyone else have an "OFF" day riding on occasion?
Typically, when sliding into the saddle, I feel like I am "one" with the bike.
Shifting is smooth, you go down and up in the turns just perfectly. You just feel all in sync with the bike like you and the bike are one.
But about once a year or once every two years I will not feel in synch with the bike. Know what I mean? And the day whole ride that day is just out of synch.
That happens with others as well? If so, do you know why it happens?

Oh sure, happens occasionally. Mostly just stoopid stuff like shifting without the clutch, hitting the horn when I'm trying for the turn signal. once I actually laid the bike down because I forgot to drop the jiffy stand. Decades on bikes and I pull that stunt. Bike only had about a dozen miles on it. Probably in my case the result of having too much going thru my mind.

Sometimes you feel like a nut and sometimes you don't...... Haven't really felt that way on my HD but I have on my Hayabusa a few times. That bike demands your attention and respect soon as you throw you leg over it. So if I'm not feeling it for whatever reason I usually cut my ride short and head back home and Live 2 ride another day

Definitely.
When I was just learning and starting out riding, I really couldn't tell if I had an off day, or if it was just lack of skill.
Now, I can comfortably say I have some decent skill, so I can tell when I am having an off day. Definitely, it is usually about something going through my mind.
