  Glad your bike and you are ok. There’s a low seat available - I have it on my bike to help with touching the ground. It’s probably the top box making it more difficult to keep upright. I ride with a small backpack which keeps the weight off the bike.

  @@aminfamily6716 nice tips. I don’t really have trouble with its size or weight, even when my girlfriend rides with me. This whole accident was really strange. I feel like I just didn’t have good balance at that moment, partially because I wasn’t paying attention. Thanks for the nice comment.

  I will not worry about bit, that had happened to everyone, about when you wore cleaning the engine I couldn’t hear if you found oil? I have the same beautiful bike and one time when I put my bike on the stand I saw oil on the same area, and is because the water pump was seeping, I know is a water pump but some how leak oil too. So I took it to the dealer and they replaced the water pump under warranty. Good luck :)😊

  @@CarlosSilva-wn8qq thanks brother. Nice, how do you like your Pikes? Love mine. It’s so much more bike than I’ll ever need. I’ve owned it for three months and still discover things about it. I think the oil was from the bleeder. Haven’t seen any oil anywhere since the drop. Rode it for about an hour the other night and didn’t have any issues. Rode like the dream bike it is! 😉

  Well, these are interesting thoughts. I find that riding a motorcycle has a way of really pulling you into the here and now more than any other activity I can think of.

  These guys are great because they keep the population of cicadas down. I have some in my yard this year and there are definitely not as many cicadas as there would be normally. It's a shame that people mistake them for hornets and get scared of them because they aren't aggressive at all. One correction: they only paralyze the cicadas with their stings because if they actually killed it its body would rot before the larva could eat it.
