I agree... it's a bitch.

after having lived and ridden for so many decades while lane splitting, it would (no bike here, yet) feel so exposed to not be able to split.

I see riders do it, but you have to be selective about it.

I rode out to Vegas 300+ miles, Friday 2up, made 4 stops and splitting lanes whenever possible all the way to stateline, then today I rode home by myself and was dying after riding 190 miles straight which was my only stop and coming home was a total of 270 miles.

It was a little weird waiting behind cars in traffic for the first time and it makes it more difficult with all the stop in go traffic, the fan kept kicking on. I kept having to put my foot down when I stopped and the roads have shitty and uneven surfaces and having a passenger doesn't make it any easier. It was a nice ride though, I enjoyed riding down the strip and being able to see everything.

Nice!

yeah... two up sucks on SB. Roads here not only SUCK the big one for quality... there are no roads to ride in terms of excitement.

Everything is straight.
