How long will take to have fun?
How long does it take to feel comfortable and start having fun on your motorcycle.
For background I rode a Honda VFR 800 for a year back in 2022 and had to sell it. Now I have 2025 ZX6R and I've been getting back into riding over the past 5 months. I only have about 800 miles on the bike cause of weather where I live.
Don't misunderstand I do enjoy riding but as I have been getting back into the hobby it feels like im getting worse at riding and each ride feels more stressful. I do have fun moments but 70 percent of the time I just feel a little stressed after riding .Between my throttle hand going numb( and yes I don't have a death grip and I keep my weight off the handle bars),traffic, bumpy roads, noticing every mistake I make and trying to improve on those mistakes I just feel exhausted.
I guess what I more trying to ask is am I in some sort of weird adjustment period that everyone experiences cause I am kinda still a new rider or am I alone in this endeavor.
To end I appreciate everyone's input and thank you for your time in this matter.
PS the 30 percent of the time I feel like im having a blast is on empty back roads
