New "extreme sport". Hump riding.
Posted: Fri Nov 21, 2014 12:47 pm
After i accelerate thru an intersection and the speed increases past 20mph, i slide back on the seat and sit on top of the hump. It is not too bad. I am sitting up high which makes me visible to other drivers. Maybe Honda knew what they were doing after all.
One slight problem is that my body acts like a sail on a sailboat. And my center of gravity is a bit too high. If i encounter traffic or approach an intersection, i slide back down onto the front portion of the seat.
I'm 5'11" so i can easily stay in the front portion for a long time. But it is slightly cramped. Please don't say that i am promoting "hump riding" because i am jealous of SECoda's and Mel's new Thailand seats. When this new extreme sport catches on, they will both be switching back to the original seats.
Riding a motorcycle in Phoenix in July is an experience (122º is our record high). Right now the motorcycles are being rolled out of garages to be enjoyed until the 100º days reappear in March.
