If you could choose only one thing that makes your ride more enjoyable, what would it be?
A pretty Riding partner ... enjoyed that for a few months last summer ...

Being out where I can see, feel, smell the environs instead of being locked in a box.

Lots of great answers here. I would have to agree that pretty much all of them make the ride more enjoyable.

Can you soak in the tub, totally submerged except for a snorkel?
Riding without eye protection, if I shut one eye and hold my head just so my nose will block wind for the other eye at up to about 45 mph.

I'm not real fond of the deisel smell or all the sand that they throw up from the road...but still.

Nice warm sunshine... Yah that's nice to ride in..
Not anyone tailgating me or trying to push me to
go faster than I want to go.
Open road, no critters to deal with..

Riding alone, cool weather, FF helmet, leathers, boots & gloves, paved backwoods roads, camera and a picnic lunch.

Dane, our tanks hold 2.8 gallons with .6 gallons after reserve (Non Raptors). Hence your 2.2 gal calculation? Do you know how long it's been since I used the word "hence"? Me either.
I was going more for comedic license over laser accuracy. My OCD doesn't allow me to ride on reserve all too often, hence, I typically refill at 2.2 and it was the first thing that came to mind.

My
initial
response would be: a race track.....but clearly this is a street oriented forum!
I would say good gear!
I feel
absolutely freakin
naked
without at the
least
a helmet, gloves, and boots. And I
really
prefer my Vanson jacket, as well. 90% of the time this is my attire. Oh, & earplugs.
When I first started riding I read about using earplugs, & thought to myself, "
why!?
"......I tried them
once
, & I practically hate riding without them. I even wore them on my dirt rig.

Riding past some idiot that came screaming around my bike... as he is getting a speeding ticket, a field sobriety test, or attempting to extricate himself from his car that got wrapped around a stationary object...
