The twisties are where it may take some time, as with having your feet out in front of you instead of underneath, you may feel less in control when really leaning into the turns, Can be fun too, as it requires different inputs with forwards, and helps you gain more confidence in your riding skills. tp dd50

I don't have much time to get the feel of it. The highway on ramp is right outside the dealership. Im thinking the highway will be easier though. I dont wanna be holding up traffic trying to get used to curves and corners. Once i get it near home it will be less crowded area to experiment. At least thats my thoughts

Have my bike in the shop now getting forward controls installed. Crappy, cold and rainy 30 mile ride in to the shop yesterday. I realize switching to forwards will take some getting used too and kinda worried about the initial ride back home. Better if I stick to the highway or slower back roads w more turns and stops?

Thanks all. Yeah im gonna need to do it either way, just to get it home. Just nervous about trying to get used to the difference while in high traffic areas whichever way i go. Would prefer to get at least a little time on it without traffic up my ***
Ride it like you stole it!
After nine days without riding, today the temperature got up to 50°F. Had to take advantage of the milder conditions and finally got a couple of hours out on the bike. Greasy, muddy roads and some strong winds, but it was still a lot of fun. Had to take it real easy on the throttle, a couple of times i went for overtakes and the rear started spinning. Back to near freezing temperatures and salty roads next week, so i doubt i'll be riding much.
