Rode the Multi for the first time in nearly a year. My right hand is still a bit too vague for my liking. The bit of feeling I have back is muted by the glove somewhat. Have to keep opening and closing my hand to reset my brain as it feels like my two smallest fingers are sticking up in the air when they aren’t. I can find the brake ok two finger braking, but when I move those fingers to brake it feels like I’m completely letting go of the bar and it’s quite unnerving.
Just my luck, it was raining, roads soaked, and where I live was above the cloud base. So first 5 km was gingerly down the hill trying to dodge the rainbow splotches of diesel the trucks spill on all the tight corners, and fighting to see ahead through the cloud/fog. But once I dropped under the cloud level it was reasonably dry roads and less stress. Nothing like jumping back into the thick of it!!!
Only did about 50 km to the inspection and back, but the right arm was aching by the time I got home already. So still a while before I’ll be doing weekend trips away two up with full luggage again.
But was nice to be on the old beast and a few throttle squirts through the gears had me grinning
