I just arrived in Daytona yesterday from Philadelphia. I rode my ST Limited west to the Blue Ridge Parkway, got off @ Fancy Gap, rode east to I-95 and south into Daytona. The last 250 miles was in steady rain. I make this same journey every year on my Harley Street Glide and I must say riding the ST was "hands down" a better ride. First, I would have never been able to ride all the way through the rain I was encountering if I was on the Harley. Hell, I didn't even have to slow down the speed while it was raining; I held steady @ 70 mph and felt very secure. I put 1250 miles on it this trip and just schedule an appointment for its 1st service at the local CanAm dealer down here. Great little toy these CanAms are!
