A thousand or so miles in 5 days was a breeze. The 1100 RT is a faithful beast with a throaty note ala aftermarket muffler and a comfortable if somewhat slick Corbin saddle.
The ancient ABS clanged like someone dropping a trailer off the ball hitch a block or two away when ever it did it's self test and engaged. I even looked around to see what was happening nearby and how it might affect me when I heard the sound. Don't under stand what mechanically was taking place in the servos and solenoids to make that sound and it bugs me.
I found myself looking for 6th gear that wasn't there occasionally but totally enjoyed my ride. A weeks worth of smashing bugs and enjoying the cool fall air and warm sun of Penn, NY and Maryland, what fun. Lesters grilled NY strip stakes and famous monster salad now just minutes away made even the Baltimore city traffic palatable.
