    Cruise control limited to < 100 mph

    First time ever I have found this combination of low traffic, not windy and fast (but not crazy) drivers that one could overtake ever so slowly for such a long stretch. It was a blast.

    Cruise control limited to < 100 mph

    I saw this picture posted by someone on another site. I’ll be 62 in June. :)

    Cruise control limited to < 100 mph

    I agree that's the reason behind it. The interstate had little traffic, but that traffic was doing mostly 90-95 mph. So, I put the cruise control as high as it would accept, which looks like 98 mph, and rode about 30 miles like that. Just slightly overtaking the few cars on the road that day.

    Iconic Pictures with R18

    Stumpknockers on the Square in Inverness, Florida. Very good food in this quaint little town. Notice the windshield full of love bugs.

    Iconic Pictures with R18

    Peck's Old Port Cove, at the end of Ozello Trail in Crystal River, Florida. Most motorcyclists agree the Ozello Trail which is one of the nicest stretches of road in FL and it is indeed a nice ride, but nothing like any of those epic WV VA NC SC TN roads,

    Cruise control limited to < 100 mph

    Today I learned that the cruise control on the R 18 won't engage past 98 mph or so.

    2024 R18 Roctane Touring Build

    I figure I could have done 20 more since the refill was 3.5 gallons

    UPDATE: Made it home

    Wow I live in Florida and have never gotten the overheating light. Interesting.

    UPDATE: Made it home

    When you need aggressive braking use the rear brake also. I found that the linked ABS is very light on the rear brake. So lets say you’re coming to a stop, using the front brake (and knowing it is also applying rear brake) but you want a bit more bite, then just apply more rear brake with the pedal.

    UPDATE: Made it home

    I absolutely love the fat front tire, so I am glad my ‘22 has it.
