So I totally get your thrill. My bike was wonderfully smooth on the highway, but I bought this bike from somebody who rode with an open faced helmet. The windshield is the size of a barn door, and the turbulence behind it can be fierce. A friend with the same model of cycle has a cafe fairing, and he said in the spring, when I’m more experienced and he’s back on the road, I can try it to see how I like it.
I’m with you on the not taking passengers thing, Candice. Way too easy for inexperienced riders like us to wreck with the extra load, and then it’s not just ourselves that we’ve hurt.
