So we had do do some digging towards the end, and it was a chilly 1.5hr ride back home... but i'm glad to have it back on the road again! The girl and I took a ride today, I'm just excited to be on the open road with it again! :rockon:

and yeah... stock tires don't do so well on snow/ice... :p

This is in Burlington? I wouldn't think you had so much leftover snow. In Newton it all melted...

Congrats on getting the bike out, are you in Burlington Mass? i know thats what your profile says, but that seems like a lot of snow for Mass. Even 40 miles south of me (Still in NH) they are almost clear of snow.

Anyway, look forward to meeting you on a New England ride this summer.

Up in New London, NH. Stored it in the family's garage for the winter.
There was still a good 2 feet of snow on the driveway! ;)

Yeah, I was confused by your address too. I was in Burlington this weekend visiting family and it was all clean there.

Andyjo, do you both ride or just you? The wife and i are always looking for other couples to ride with during the summer. I am sure we will still ride if you go 2-up, but it is cool to have the women ride their own. And it looks like the FZ fits her well too.

The FZ it quite a bit too tall for her, she does like to ride on the back though. I've been trying to get her to learn, i might just buy her a ninja 250 this summer to get her into it. But yeah, I'm game for riding w/ you guys and i'm sure she would be too... once i fix it.... :eek:

I just realized I saw one of your pictures yesterday on an Ottawa, Canada MC Forum - the power of the internet!

I saw it on the local forum too, I had fun screwing with the guy, since he apparently knows you and i mentioned more about the situation then he had posted..
