"Stupidly Quick, Underdressed and Imminently Dead" haha thats awesome!
I hate this heat, because i ALWAYS try to wear my jacket...but even with the liner removed its still too hot.
As for only being able to take corners slow...that just means you won't lay your bike down on an invisible oil patch around a corner...you won't even know you drove through it. the other day i was goin around 70 up this one corner, and hit a small oil patch my right peg got dragged a little bit, and spooked me, but i was back to my normal ass self in a few seconds. Just testing these battle ax's before they get swapped out friday for some new pilots ! I've already had the Metzler M3's...those were nice...new bike came with the battle ax's which don't suck too bad. But i just like a little more grip on the edges. Drifting on 2 wheels isn't as fun as on 4.
