CB1100 and Wind

[Randy B]

You should try riding across San Francisco Bay on one of the many bridges and see how you feel about wind gusts...lol. This is one of the more stable bikes I have ridden in the wind, and let me tell you there is plenty of it around here to blow you around.

I crossed the San Mateo Bridge west to east on a gusty day in afternoon rush hour traffic a couple of weeks ago. Had to resist the urge to slow down - stayed at about 65 mph and just had to deal with the buffeting! A little counter steering here and there helped but I was using the whole lane at times! The longest 7 miles ever!

Yeah...you understand what I'm sayin!
