Patrick- Yes. My Riv just feels so great and rolls so well. It works with me, flexes a bit, stiffens a bit, and together we just move like stink.
I've never really experienced the same symbiosis with another machine. Anything with an engine to make it fast also makes it heavy. Even my motorcycles are ponderous at low speeds and require deliberate input. Now, when I'm on a twisty road, flying through the curves and using my hips to lean back and forth, my Triumph starts to feel like a part of me. But not nearly as naturally as my Riv. My other bikes are pretty great (I have a couple other nice bikes), but me and the Riv are on another level. Another exhilarating vehicle is the B-1 bomber, on which I crewed as a navigator. But again, you're just a flea on the back of that supersonic beast. It doesn't move with you, it moves how you force it. But what amazing moves!
