Keeping my fingers crossed that I can get Ginger out for the last ride of the year tomorrow.

A little chilly for the first tomorrow but Monday looks a little better. Lmk when you go, I might Jim you if you want company!

 
Added the PIAA horns, MV Motoradd bar riser plate, AND adjusted the vents to provide more heat on my chilly night rides. Got down to the low 40s the other day!

[Will add photos etc for the horns & risers later; this is the only 'non-rain' window this weekend and I need to honk my horn and see if the bar risers do what I hope.]

 
Hey Steve, 333 posts, that means you're half evil!

He's probably fully evil considering posts in half the forum don't count. Like here.

Ooooo! Look at my post count! 2666!

The other night brought the old girl over to my brother in law's garage and put her on the tender and tucked her in for her winter's nap. I usually try to hold out a little longer but since I don't ahve a garage and park in the street I worry about getting hit with a suprise snow storm ( it's happened to me before) cause those plows can be brutal.

mounted new front PR2-old one and it's rear mate have 9400 miles, by far the best I ever got... getting old I guess

pulled forks to flush and noticed a small seal leak on one...replaced the seals instead of dicking around with a seal mate.. very cool way to remove old seals by hydraulic locking- technique is in FSM and here on the forum.

very pleased to find zero play in fork bushings and steering head at 40K.. .miles and miles of rough mountain roads not withstanding.

 
FedEx guy dropped off my Givi E55 and I spent the entire evening installing the Admore lights and the getting the whole thing set up.

Rode it to visit a forum member and got it all dirty.
Thanks for stopping by Phil. Good to see you out enjoying your bike, even if it wasn't a very nice day. Hope that tire works out for you...at least for a couple thousand miles.
It was great chatting with you and thanks again for the tire! I'll be sure to put it to good use.

Thanks! I think I'll make this a permanent fixture. Loving the extra storage space.

 
Looked at my 2 beauties in the garage, then went skiing, like I have been doing for 3 days already

That's the view form our living room window

Wow. Brings back memories for me of a previous life, riding to work in that stuff. Not now though!

Enjoy the skiing until biking weather returns.
