After much deliberation and over-thinking about whether to buy used, and if so, which one to get (there are many to choose from on SF Bay craigslist), or to wait for the new 2020's to come out, I decided to pull the trigger on a '16 RR with 2k miles, so much carbon fiber the thing'll float away if I don't tie it down when it's parked, Akrapovic exhaust, fresh tires, and the registration is paid til April 2020! Thing rides like a dream. I'm smitten. Sucks I have to work... It's a beautiful day out there with plenty of twisties within 10 minutes from my office. Might *cough* feel *cough* sick *cough* tomorrow. ?
One thing: the dude didn't have mirrors on it. Said he got used to riding it that way on the track so he took them off for good - has them in storage somewhere. It was a real hole-in-the-head feeling riding on the slab, wondering if there's a cop behind me with his lights on. Do any of you guys / gals street ride with no mirrors?? Is this a "thing?" I'm getting them from him this Saturday so all will be well. Hopefully I don't get pulled over before then, because it's not sitting in the garage til this weekend! Happy riding, all!
