As I have confessed before, the only motorcycles I rode before were 100-150 cc bikes,now jumped straight to Panigale 899. The argument for myself was to keep it in wet mode, with only 100hp and weight being only slightly more than my prior bikes , the ride should be manageable. However that ended quickly....
First off, this thing is LOUD and HOT. Even on wet mode you know you are sitting on a monster and pretending it's a tame pony. Anywho the first few miles in wet mode, I thought I'm ready for more...
Switch to sports mode. Pushed in new ear plugs and ready again. This time the damage to my ears was far less and got to experience where all the money I paid for went into. Don't think I have ever been in anything that shoots from 60 to 90 in the blink of an eye with the throttle only half open.
Questions-
1. How many miles do I have AFTER the low fuel light comes on and the display starts counting miles upwards from that point. The light came on both days.????
2. Haven't had done any "leaning" in corners that this bike is built for. So far have been only slowing down enough that I don't have to lean much. So far 180 miles on the bike. Should I try to get more miles before I start trying to corner like it's supposed to?
3. Is ok to install cell phone holder on the steering stabilizer? I need my cell phone GPS for directions.
