    Default Learned something new today

    Went on a nice ride today. Found out that if you have the cruise set and enter a curve to fast the cruise will automatically kick off and the bike will idle down. Made it around the curve ok.

    OR it thought the curve was an evasive or sudden manoeuvre and cruise cut out

    Nanny will do that if you enter a curve without CC on but are too fast for the curve.
    Artillery lends dignity to what would
    otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

    Default For sure....

    The nanny applies the brakes cancelling the cruise control and slowing you down. Now if you power out of a curve to fast she will retard the ignition and you will think you lost a cylinder... great safety feature but does cut into the fun a bit...I have to admit I have come to depend on her a bit much
