And it's a good time of the year to mention that NOBODY who takes a few months off should ASSume that they can jump right back on the bike like they never left.

Sweeping turns gave me a problem on my Shadow for a few months right after I got it. The actual turn went OK but I had a VERY nervous feeling while IN the turn......just because the feed-back I was getting was different than what I was used to. Finally got over that BUT..........here we are after a few months off and that nervous feeling is BACK.

Got to find some low traffic, sweeping turns and re-train my mind/muscle memory again. :roll:
