I can't believe you guys ride in SF proper, those steep grades scare me on some of those streets (am I being a wuss?)

You're fine. All the years I've been riding, I avoid the big hills when I can. I don't even like going on some of the hills with a car.  
Funny story, a long time ago my wife and her friends decided to be tourist for the day. They all rented those Go Carts that you can ride throughout the city. I forgot what street, but they happened to attempt to go up one of the steep ones. When they came to the stop sign at the top, I guess my wife's couldn't make it up and started going backwards. Good thing a car was there to block her. Lol. Our friends had to help her push the go cart up. That must have been scary. Haha.
Haha jesus . I just moved out here from Chicago (land of 0 hills) and I  was actually blown away at how steep some of those side streets really are. I find myself laughing in my Jeep when I'm driving around in the city. I can totally see one of those yellow go cart things struggling. 

I keeps it real

I was near there on the freeway at that time heading to my friends house, but I was on a silver/blue FZ. I guess it wasn't me, but speed sounds about the same. Lol.

That's cool, thanks for sharing! 
I've taken a cornering class in Stockton from Super-Bike Coach. The classes aren't free, about $125 per class and it's a three part class. I've taken the first and will be taking the second in December. Here's the link if any of you were interested:https://www.superbike-coach.com 
 
Hopefully I can find a Sunday to meet up w/ Dr Wong for both his cornering clinic and suspension clinic.

Thanks for the head's up! I'm signing up for the email list. Hopefully I can make it too... I'll have to see if I can get off work early enough to make it to those night ones.

I love how everytime I've seen an FZ, it's parked close to a Duc Scrambler... Which has been the only time I see either one of them. :D
