Well just got back from a nice little ride. Rode to a town south of me about 25 miles. Drove by an old boss's house and stop in. I worked for him in a service station 50 years ago. He was home tinkering on his Corvette. We had a great chat, reminiscing about old times, playing catch up on family's and such. What a great stop! And not to pat myself on the back, he gave me one of the greatest compliments a man can get....he said he always thought highly of me, that I was a hard worker, didn't steal, was dependable, and did my job with no complaints! That's just the way I was taught by my dad, and the way I grew up!

Haha, no, I'm not really concerned with it. I just spray it down with WD40.

I would be more worried about the heat cooking my rear caliper and having it lock up at speed.

Live a little! 
Damn, you're right! And in my panic, to stop snd get off, I'll split my shin and bust my ***.

Even if that one was set up for comfort and handling, I'd be reluctant to risk that paint job on the road.

Except I wouldn't want to risk a buddy's bike, either.
