It's getting cold

[sportrider]

this morning on the way to work, my air temp was at 47 degrees. once we move it's going to be really cold in the mornings time to dig out the thermals and get a face wrap.

Would you fit heated grips to an R1.....man, those little heated grips are neat in the cold months.

:thumbup:

 

[sportrider]

I would if I have to, I'm hoping that I'll be able to drive my truck on the really cold days. I'm way to acclimated to the heat of the desert summers so anything less then 65 starts to feel a little cool. I've actually had my liner in the last two days and the temp on the way home was 72. but I guess when your used to 115 that feels cold.

I hadn't really noticed the cold much lately. 33 degrees C the other day:cheer:. Yup, toasty warm drinking weather:scared: . :spank::spank:

I know I'm an evil, evil man...lol.:spank:

It's not all roses here yet, mike...it was very cold up at Mt Lofty tonight...heated grips were on flat out! Face was frozen, got caught out at night on unlit road with tinted visor...

Sport Rider, i say take the truck on real cold days...your hands will thank you.

:thumbup:

I've ridden in some really cold weather, I just hate to wake up in the morning and jump on the bike to freeze for an hour. I got caught in a hail storm one time on a standard with no wind protection at all. it was in the low 20's outside and by the time I got home I think my legs and face had frost bite.

but... I'll keep riding until I secure a Victory in the mileage contest!!!

I know, I better buy another FZ6 to help keep the miles off the R1

I'm sure there's one on the forum.....what about rsw?

 

[sportrider]

I think his went to the race track in the sky, $2000.00 buy back


EDIT: I'm thinking matte black finish, clip ons and speed triple headlights

 

[jsteinb95]

If you get another FZ6, I'm gonna buy a ZX-6

Dude!!! I'm supposed to be having a yard sale right now and I'm supposed to be packing and I don't want some a-hole cop to give me a ticket.

What does that have to do with an FZ6 and a ZX-6 anyways?!??!?!

well in a round about way... the need for another FZ6 is due to the 2up comfort, a ZX-6R is a Kawi also known as a Ninja, you have a Ninja. I feel like Mexican food from Borrego Springs(ok that one is just my A-D-D kicking in) but your main jets are clogged up, if you clean them we don't have to ride 2 up on my R1, which lessens the "need" for another FZ. If you clean your jets, I don't have to, and then we go get Mexican food!!! see it's a win win situation....

ahhhh what was the question again?

[sportrider]

[reiobard]

a couple times next week i had to scrape the ice off the FZ's seat to ride her into work. The cold doesn't bother me, but i am looking forward to having some heated grips.


Do miles in the snow count double for the mileage contest?
