    First ride. From the dealership. After teaching the MSF classroom. 8:30 PM, Aug 21, getting dark/dusky.
    Suspension was set on "max-comfy-sofa."
    I get on the 95 North heading home. I've got 20 miles to the exit.
    I clear out of traffic, get into the #1 lane and get my groove on - not the fastest vehicle I can see, but #2, or 3.
    It's now dark, no one is around me, no highway lighting, high beams are on.
    I glance down at the dash, wondering how to dim it, when I see the speedo....not exactly "MSF Safety Guy of the Month" material.
    It was past 100.
    I throttled down, forcing myself to do 65. It seemed like I was doing 25.
    Amazing machine.
    Alien technology.
    My girls:
    Isleen - 2014 F6BD
    Saorla - 1995 FLSTN Heritage Special

    My fj 1200 is much faster. My fj1100 was faster too. But........ My f6b is much easier to ride fast. So yes my "average "speed is faster. Especially when cruising on the freeway. 😯
