Scary if I had to look back, while driving between two cars and pushing the reverse button and throttling up the engine. Sounds like a tricky maneuver.
Yes.... TRICKY. Try, "looking back, while driving between two cars and pushing the reverse button and throttling up the engine" as well as pushing the PTT switch on the right side handlebar so you can tell your buddies on your CB that you are on your way. Oh, and don't forget about that text that is coming in and the GPS telling you she is recalculating your way home because....
It is great when you finally get out and can ride ! I love my 14 GT and the time I get to spend riding it is very important to me. Life is short and can change so fast that little things like a ride down a country road can be very special.
