Hi Guys
I will be riding my bike as little as eight miles a day now. And otherwise making shorter trips then in the past. New job, very local, gonna be a very local commuter now.
Is there anything I need to know about specific bike maintenance for short distance daily usage? I have read that running the bike keeps the battery charged, but for those days when it's all work and no play or errands is riding the bike under 50mph four miles each way going to kill the battery without notice? What do I need to know and understand about maintaining a somewhat limited use FZ6?
Perhaps I should extend my ride to work and back home? But how much? "Take the long way," as they say? 10 miles each way? Get the speed up just a little? What else should I be concerned about besides the battery?
Thanks guys
