Rode to work today high 20's for temps. Whipped her up to 90+ passing a tractor trailer truck. It felt good to get out again.

Winter sucks!

Nice dry spell and in exchange end up with freezing fog -- every day -- gotta love Seattle.

Went out to the garage, hooked up the battery tender and gently caressed her curves...

I called Jamie (Bugman) and asked him to put the bike on a battery tender. Voltage on the Shorai was down to 11.5

I haven't seen the bike since November 16, and it's going down to 5-7 degrees F tonight. Fortunately, the FJR is sleeping cozy in CA waiting for the Spring Farewell tour.

Thanks again Bugman

Rode to work again today....Jackie-O did just fine in this 36 degree wheather. Had a couple a smokes on her while I waited to go into work.

 
Well got me now my dash shelf (For what I know, the last known N/Line one for a GenII!) and Valentine One keep, also got my snake skin protector sticky pads for the tank, just need to wait for some decent temps, so the adhesive will stick...

Next step, prepping the fuse block install, need some 10 and 12 gauge cables and a few relays and than I hope I can plan on that farkle.....

Mounted the main portion of my Ham radio under a used rear seat I modified for the task. Works great!

Ok, not pretty but functional.

Rear seat base cut out to fit and added plate to ensure air flow around the fan.

Ready to go!

Fewer wires and no bulky tank bag to hold the radio. Garauld's RD mount too!
