    It's not addressed in the owners manual. In my mind I determine how I drive the bike.

    Though I'm guilty of it myself, I think a bike sitting for long periods of time is harder on it than driving it hard.

    True abuse is just leaving it parked in the garage.
    I choose my own ride and destination and seek not your approval of either.

    I think you can ride your bike as hard as you want, change the oil when coming back from the mountains from all the engine braking, take it easy on the trans, easy on slipping the clutch, keep it clean and inspect while cleaning...all should be OK
