Pretty sure traction control saved me today.

I live on a dirt road which is pretty muddy right now from the snow melting. I pulled onto the paved street and gave it a bit to much gas not thinking about my rear tire is probably coated in mud and cold. the bikes rear end slid sideways enough that I was probably leaned over at a 45 degree angle.

My left foot hit the pavement pretty hard trying to catch it. I'm almost certain the traction control probably kicked in and cut power to the rear wheel enough for me to bring it back up. Felt like I was on ice when it tried to slide out from under me. That made me take it easy for a bit.

Also, I'm consistantly getting 28 mpg now with the Bt Moto tune, was getting 30 mpg before.
