"My advice is to try to bend forward more and take all the weight off your wrists. Try to "float" on this bike"

I fly Cessnas. Long time ago when I was taking the flying lessons, my instructor pointed out that I should fly the plane with my fingers and not my forearms, kinda let the plane fly itself and just control the attitude.

I do the same thing with my Sprint, release the heavy grip on the bars and let the bike carry you thru the corners...Ohhhh, what a feeling it is!!!!!!! The Sprint tracks like a bullet train.

Also...before you leave the showroom floor, have the dealer dial in some preload on the forks and rear shock. They leave the factory in the lowest position so they fit in the crate.

Have a good flight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
