What a great day! Perfect morning after heavy rains with a coolish run out to the Minami Alps if Yamanashi in an attempt to get over into Shizuoka…alas, it was no to be.
Did get to see and ride plenty of other cool stuff though.

Got out for a leisurely 320km through Izu to see out the year.

As the MT10 has been up on stands since March due to the plague, I was initially worried about the battery as I rarely leave the bike unridden for long and if I do, the battery is disconnected.
The MT10 has a great little gadget I installed when picking up the bike from Apexmoto. It has made checking the battery crazy easy. A bluetooth battery monitor.
March 2020 @320km
I’ve only done a few hundred kms in my Travel Stars so far.
The toe box is vast. I’m usually a 42/43 and as many said they ran large, I went 42. Should’ve gone 41 or even 40.However, the ankle is tight. And extremely inflexible. Had to adjust the shifter a lot to accommodate the change. I’m expecting that to free up as boots do.
Quality is superb.
