Yup, I find my Blade a bit too hot during the warmer weather. Even with leathers on my shins can get uncomfortably hot and it doesn’t take long for the heat to creep through the seat and start boiling my spuds, especially at urban speeds.
Hence this week I’m riding my RXS100. It’s light, cool and has no fairing to divert the cooling breezes. I went for a blast on the Blade last night after dark to get my big bike fix, but the RXS100 is my steed of choice for the daylight hours.
The heady smell of hot two stroke oil is an added benefit.  ____________________ 2007 CBF1000 & 2016 CBF1000F - Commuter heaven | 1994 CBR600FR - Awaiting defibrillation |

Muscle bikes get very hot when riding in this heat. I even check my jeans/textiles when at the lights now and then for melting etc.  |

I rode back at 70 mph tonight with my visor open, I just couldn't get enough fresh air to concentrate. ____________________ My claim to fame: Austin Vince nicked my pen... |

Two words I never thought I'd see in the same sentence.
But yeah, my right leg (only the right) gets baking if I'm riding in just jeans. I find if you stick your leg out like your trying to get knee down it helps to cool it. |

I'm gonna buy all you girls a nice pair of panties to put your delicate vaginas in
You don't know hot til you've ridden in 50c in full kit over the top of long work pants and shirt.
That day was so hot that when I opened the visor for some fresh air the wind was so hot it hurt my eyes and it was cooler to have my jacket zipped up and visor down.
I swear I must have shed kilos just on that 20 minute ride home.
Anymore would seriously have been pushing it.
So man up fags  ____________________ meh |
