Traffic was pretty heavy by the time I got away from the office - no problem.......just carve it up with the Split......I was having a ball, moving through the 60km/h traffic @~0.80c.....not being too much of a larrikin - just having fun.
As I approached point B on the Map - for some reason my "Spidey Senses" kicked in and told me to back off......I did - and lucky too!
The traffic had slowed and I was in filtering mode rather than full-blown splitting.......as I moved through point B above I filtered slowly and smoothly past two Police patrol cars - one in each lane travelling abreast.
I saw them as I approached and my instant thought was the Akra's......no baffles......quick shift into 3rd gear.....constant throttle.....no load on engine, less compression........chug, chug, chug - past........phew....
I continued to filter on through whilst checking the mirrors......no "Blues and Twos".......in the clear.....
The traffic starts moving again and I signal right and slipped into the flow......I wait till point C - feeling like I'm in the clear then GTFO..........hammer time all the way home from there =D
Fun times indeed...........
\I like Sport mode (especially more so with the aid of the FatDuc)
Agreed! Sport mode is a lot of fun!!
ReplyDeleteThe other two were put in for those who worry about fuel consuption!! :p
Gold.........so we have 1-fun mode and 2-fuel preservation modes!
ReplyDeleteDo you ride a Shiver or Dorso?
Personally I tend to use Touring mode for commuting (rain mode if weather is particularly bad)
I usually only crack out Sport mode when out in the hills or when I've got the urge to put the hammer down....
Cheers mate,
