Default Riding suggestions

MSF class last March. XL Custom delivered early May. Rode 3600 miles by December. Sold the Sporty and ordered an 08 RKC. Absolutely love to ride anytime, anywhere. Any advice about the new ride coming next month would be greatly appreciated.

you will love that RKC. ride it like you stole it. only thing that keeps me off it is snow or ice. get the docking points for BOTH the Tour-Pak and the sissy bar installed up front even if you don't "plan" to get either right now (they dock in different positions). i really like the flexibility of using either or no detachable.
