anyone else still riding?
 
It was a very nice day for riding today. Rode into work and it was chilly at 7am. Very nice going home though.

Every time I think I'm gonna cancel my insurance it gets nice out for a day or two

SilverBlitz 11-06-2009 01:29 AM

Stored for the winter. All i need to do is oil change and put in gas stabilizer, and put a battery tender on right?

hud 91gt 11-06-2009 02:33 PM

Why arn't you guys riding year round!??!?!?!

stevo911_ 11-06-2009 03:50 PM

for me theres multiple reasons:
Cagers are alot less on the lookout in the winter months
I dont find riding in the rain as enjoyable, dealing with fogged visors
The routes that I like taking all have wet leaves on the ground now
I have a car insured as well so why bother?

If you got stands, put the bike on them so you don't get a flat spot on your tires. Otherwise, occasionally roll your bike to move where the tire contacts the ground to prevent the flat spots.

If your bike is stored outside, plug the exhaust and air intakes so no bugs get inside over the winter months. :thumbsup:

I am on non-rainy days. Fingers are numb by the time I get to work in the morning. And I need to pack an extra jacket and shoes in my already full backpack because I can't wear motorcycle gear all day. Despite the ridiculous price of a givi top box I might suck it up next season and finally get one.

racerman88 11-10-2009 09:21 AM

damn forecast shows a lot of rain

Clear today, at least in the morning. Cold tires are slippery first thing in the morning, y'all be careful!

racerman88 11-29-2009 05:08 PM

check out that forecast for the following week and a half

xpl0sive 11-30-2009 11:16 AM

racerman88 12-03-2009 10:21 PM

I think I will wait until the afternoon to go for a short ride.

TheSalesman 12-05-2009 11:09 AM

damn its so cold out. Still riding?
heated vest?

racerman88 12-06-2009 07:45 PM

Went out today or around an 11/2hrs and it was freezing cold with the wind chill. I think a heated vest or jacket might have helped.

racerman88 12-26-2009 03:43 PM

nice forecast but there is still black ice:
