This is the first weekend after the rainy season was declared over. As of Thursday, I had to devote one day of the weekend to work and personal matters, but the weather forecast called for sunshine on both Saturday and Sunday.
In order to get some work done first, I made Saturday a work day and worked with my staff ..... I was just doing that. ”It looks like it's going to rain tomorrow, are you going to ride your bike?" This is what one of our staff members said to me at....
Sunday's weather forecast (around Yokohama and Kawasaki, Kanagawa Prefecture) changed to cloudy and then rainy as of Saturday night: .....orz
I had no choice but to stay up late watching movies on Amazon Prime Video. On Sunday morning, I woke up to find ....... Super clear and sunny! You lied about the weather!
If it wasn't for the rainy weather forecast, we would have gone out early in the morning to ride across the Southern Alps, but it was already 9 o'clock when we woke up. But by the time I woke up, it was already nine o'clock, so I got on my bike and started riding. First, I took Route 246 toward Atsugi - the temperature was rising rapidly - and then I took Route 412 to Sagami Lake........ It's hot!
We had no choice but to head for the highlands. We quickly got on the Chuo Expressway from Sagami-ko IC and headed for Nagano. By the way, the fuel gauge had only one memory left when we got on the highway. We took a break and refueled at Dangozaka SA right away.
This kind of bike in SA? Trikes? A car? was parked at the SA. A dandy old gentleman kicked the engine and rode away without a helmet. Oh, I see. I guess you don't need a helmet or a motorcycle license to ride a trike. It looks super comfortable.
Last time I filled up the tank.WAKO'S FUEL1
The engine seems to be in good shape, with a smooth increase in rpm from 6,000 to 7,000, and less vibration. I felt like I could cruise 10 to 15 km faster than usual. In no time at all, we left the Sudama IC and headed for Kiyosato. The soft-serve ice cream at Kiyosato was tempting, but it was not cool enough at the altitude of Kiyosato, so we passed through and headed for Hirasawa Pass.
As expected at an altitude of 1450 meters, the wind is cool and the magnificent view of the Yatsugatake mountain range and the Southern Alps mountain range is wonderful. By the way, I heard that this is a watershed.
Well, the heat was already on the way down. I decided to continue running to gain a little more altitude. We took a break for soft-serve ice cream on the way:......
We arrived at this place.Shibutoge (Shibu Pass), where we went on a tour in May.The Mugusa Pass is the second highest point on the national highway after the Shibu Pass. The difference in elevation from Shibutoge is 42 meters.
We had stocked up on rice balls and tea at the convenience store at the foot of the mountain, so we had lunch at the Mugiso Hütte, a few hundred meters from the highest point of the pass, while admiring the scenery. It was a very nice view, but the exhaust fumes and heat from the cars made me feel like a gnat. Bugs? The exhaust fumes/heat from the car attracted a lot of insects.... The engine of the Ninja 400 was covered in bugs right after we stopped.
As usual, I didn't have a destination in mind, I just came here to run, so I didn't have a set course for the rest of the day. I just came here to run, as usual, with no destination in mind. I decided to take a bath just in time.
My phone went bad, so there are no pictures after this.
I've been using it for about a year now, and I'm thinking of changing it...... I've been using it for about three years now and I think it's time for a new model.
By the way, I didn't use the expressway on the way home, but instead took National Route 20 to get home.
It's been a while since I've done any touring on my Ninja 400, over 500km. Yeah. From this distance, I might start dreaming of a larger displacement bike that's a bit easier to ride.
WAKO'S F-1 Fuel One Fuel additive for cleaning system
When it comes to verification videos of Fuel One, this one is often introduced.
I don't know the details because I'm a liberal arts student (and I don't want to study), but the engine has certainly been running better since the last refueling. Maybe there are other factors such as temperature or air pressure, but for now, all I can think of is this chemical. Is it just me, or do I have blind faith in Wako's products?
