Love Hate Relationship

I realized this morning that I have a love-hate relationship with Lola. I love to ride but I hate the way I feel when I see a curve. I really want to enjoy the ride but I know the only way I can is if I'm on a straight away. How boring! I love the way she handles but I hate the way she beats me up. The day after a ride I can barely walk my legs are so sore and my neck is stiff. Over 75 mph is not happening because I think I would vibrate right on off. I love that she is an 1100 but hate that Adam leaves me in the dust with his 1500! I love that she has a low center of gravity but hate that I can't pick her up by myself. I love that I can touch the ground flat footed but I hate that I can only go 120 miles on a full tank. I love her saddlebags but hate the second seat it has to go....I mean really I can barely ride myself who am I going to put back there?? I love her cruising pegs but I hate that I can't position them just right. I love her new seat but I hate that the motor is right under it. I think we need couples therapy......
