What a glorious day to be on the best bike! Another thing about the UK which is kinda freaky is, we both drive on the same side of the road with RHD cars. Yet, cars parallel parked on either side of the road are all facing any direction! Why is that? I wonder how many incidents occur because a parked driver on the far right facing the LHS driving direction would see a bicycle/motorcycle coming from the opposite direction and the drivers view being obscured by another car Infront & A -B pillars of both his car & the car or can Infront of them as they're wanting to pull out on to the road driving on the wrong side temporarily? Has it really become a free for all? Try that here in Aus & they will tow your car away or fine you for parking facing the wrong direction. Otherwise, enjoy the rest of summer on this absolutely incredible machine!
@stevesanelli90 Thanks very much for your comments. Parking rules over here in the UK seem to be forgotten about. I have, on a few occasions, had to watch out for a car door to be suddenly flung open in my direction as I am passing. Also, at night, people often park facing the oncoming traffic with their head lights on, causing some degree of blindness for several seconds to the oncoming traffic. I have a few more videos planned, hopefully before the autumn arrives here. I think in Australia you may be now looking forward to your summertime? I certainly agree with you about the GSX-8S being a fantastic bike to ride.
@@lost-againMost fortunately, we can ride all year round. I'm down south in Melbourne & there may be a couple of super miserable days, but on the whole, perfect. There is no snow, but there can be a bit of black ice. These are warning posted though. Cheers
