Eric, that's euphoria dude. That felling ya get when you hit a doob and get up off the couch too fast. L.O.L. Just messin' around. Earplugs are worth a try. I too get a pecuiliar feel when high speed riding. Might be an inner ear thing? Glad to hear you made it back from the Easy rider rodeo. Took me days to recover.
I think i figured out the problem. I was up in the upper pennisula riding last week, and i started wearing ear plugs. the uneasy feeling totally went away. i think the wind blowing in my ears was probably throwing my equilibrium off enough to give me the uneasy feeling.
thanx for all the help.
Drink plenty of water, or poweraid or something, it is very easy to de-hydrate riding a motorcycle. The sun and wind will take the moisture right out of you. I've felt weird a couple of times, balance was off at a traffic light (No I wasn't drunk!) lightheaded, now I drink a couple of glasses of water before I go out, even if I don't really want to.
