I bought my RT about a month ago and am at about 2000 miles. Just this past weekend I started getting over my fear of high speed sweeping turns, especially on the highway. Part of the solution was to look further ahead down the road, and to lock in my arm on the outside of the turn. It cuts down on the darting about with each bump. I'm loving it.
:congrats:Just like mine,traded my '11RS for my '15RT and my wife has a '14RTL:yes:I picked it up this afternoon and put 26 miles on it riding around my city. Had a fun time!

Good info. Thank you for sharing!I bought my RT about a month ago and am at about 2000 miles. Just this past weekend I started getting over my fear of high speed sweeping turns, especially on the highway. Part of the solution was to look further ahead down the road, and to lock in my arm on the outside of the turn. It cuts down on the darting about with each bump. I'm loving it.

I bought my '15 a month ago and reached 3,000 miles, yesterday
On long rydes, we (my hubs has a Kaw Voyager) stop every 50 or 60 miles or so to walk around and take a short break.
Looking ahead in the curves is key for me, if I don't do that, the ride through the curves can be a
bit strange. I have a laser alignment. I don't have the added sway bar, yet. Not sure I am going to need it.
Also, relax your grip on the handle bars and enjoy the ryde!! It is definitely a different feel as you go over bumps
and grooves in the road. It gets easier after you get some miles on it!
Have a great time!!
