On Weibo, said that I ride a handsome and sassy friend, knock thanks! I decided to write an article to share with you how I've been riding these days. Give those who are like me, novice little white female knights a little confidence, believe me, more than 700 pounds of cars, you can also ride the movement!
Before that, I usually occasionally walked on a motorcycle of more than 200 pounds, you know, when I received a test drive invitation from BMW R 18 in Wanning, how kaisen I was! How exciting! many......
(There are too many adjectives here, can't put it down, you know)
But apparently... I was happy too early, the test drive has not yet arrived, Typhoon "Rey" arrived first, the rain has been falling, the atmosphere is not harmonious, the wind is a little big, I lied to the people around me and said that I like to fly hair, and rain or look at the eyes.
It may be infected by my literature and art, it may be that I can't bear to hurt works of art like R 18, or it may be to accommodate me... In this test drive activity, the big guys who have traveled through North America and South America gave up the idea of riding in the rain, visited the coffee factory according to the arrangement of the organizers, grinded coffee and roasted by hand, and spent a morning, we giggled and shared interesting things about the ride. Of course, as a little white female knight, I don't have any interesting things, it's all a matter of embarrassment ~ but I still have to say that hand-ground coffee is really delicious~
It may be that from childhood I believe in the light and the power of hope, or it may be that the typhoon is like us, wanting to see poetry and the distance, the weather gradually clears in the afternoon, and the R 18 riding force successfully assembles and sets off. Whether it is the regular version of the R 18, or the R 18 Classic, there is a sense of refinement and muscle that is different from American cruise and Japanese cruise, the horizontally opposed engine protrudes from the silhouette, as if shouting, 1802cc represents horsepower, torque, low center of gravity and justice.
Haha, but what you see in the cycling team now... Without me... Because I'm here, the coach gave me training
Speaking of which, I would like to remind you that it doesn't matter if you haven't ridden such a large displacement and such a heavy car. But, remember, don't be afraid! Confidence is paramount! Although it is difficult to overcome the initial fear ~
But when you learn to push a cart, it's much better. Don't think you're a girl, can't lift the car, more than 700 pounds, if the car falls, both men and women are not good to lift up! Learn to use the trick ~ It turns out that as long as you simply adapt, you will soon find a way to conquer it!
The model I test drove this time was the R 18 Classic, with a back seat, a side bag, a windshield, fog lights, handlebar heating, etc., and various driver assistance configurations, which were very friendly to female knights.
The whole test drive activity, riding distance of 80km, estimated to take 120 minutes, the moment you start the vehicle, you will feel a kind of throbbing, this is the horizontal opposing engine unique sense of ritual, as if awakening the beast under the crotch, as if it is telling you, no more go, I will go ah... Hang up to a gear, the moment the clutch engages, the rhythmic rhythm of the engine makes your adrenaline soar.
Although the rain is sunny, the road surface is still very slippery, and after the typhoon, there will often be large branches across the road, so the line of sight should be far away, and you can look wherever you want.
Riding on this car, you will find that the worry about the weight and displacement of the car is superfluous, thanks to the huge displacement of 1802cc, the output characteristics of this car have been a bit like driving a car, and the small increase in engine speed can bring a steady stream of power and different driving experiences.
With the increase in speed, the weight and size of the car brought about by the sense of bulkiness gradually faded, everyone nudged the faucet flexibly to avoid obstacles on the road, constantly challenging the bend at a larger angle, as a cruise car, its suspension adjustment is actually biased towards toughness and movement, which I never expected.
It is also because of the characteristics of the suspension, we actually used a cruise car to complete a small part of the rainforest crossing, this is a small step of R 18, but it is a big step for me as a female rider Xiaobai, this post-typhoon riding let me understand, why everyone says that four wheels carry life, two wheels carry souls, riding motorcycles bring happiness and control fun and that sense of conquest, it is indeed a car can not compare!
After saying those bold words, and then a little heart-warming, it may be considering that we are such a thin female knight, this car is also equipped with reverse gear, if you can master the R 18, it can be said that 99% of the time is not needed to push the cart ~ ~
This test drive, I really understood why I fell in love with motorcycles. Vehicles are not all born for speed, such as R 18, in addition to the pursuit of performance, it can also represent a lifestyle and attitude to life, riding on it you have a different temperament, you know, the law does not allow you to ride a high horse for temperament, but you can have an R 18 ~
"Make life a ride", let life be spent in the journey, may every rider be forever young, always tearful, always on the road! It's nice to ride a motorcycle!
Finally, 2021 is one week away
Hope 2022 is a little better for us~
Sister Ni wishes everyone a Merry Christmas!
