flashesbuck Posted November 5, 2017 Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 Added a new (to me) exhaust. It’s a scorpion, found it on ebay. Great condition. Also found a used tank Braw. Not very popular these days, but I really like it. The new pipe sound really good. Not very loud at all, but give is a nice low tone growl. Also I keep buying cheap saddle bags from c-list or the Facebook market place. This is the second set of 20$ bags I have found. These were new with tags. Not very impressed. They are smaller than the other ones, and they don’t smash the rear turn singles. They are really cheap. But will give them a shot. These also have rain covers. I keep thinking ill come across a nice used set of Cortech bags or may be SW-Motech bags. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSerfozo Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 Rode it to work this morning! Finally, no rain. 34o but it beats another day in the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSerfozo Posted November 9, 2017 Report Share Posted November 9, 2017 29o when I left this morning. My commute is about 15 minutes longer this winter and I think I found my limit unless I invest in heated gloves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jschaf Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 28 on the way to work this morning. Had to wear a long sleeve shirt & turn on the seat warmer when I got in the car. Used to be a die hard rider in all the weather guy but common sense got the best of me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it gets closer to 30 today, ill likely get out for a spin. Haven't plugged in my Gerbings yet this fall, so this will be a good day to verify they still work. And they havent sprayed the roads around here yet with that corrosive crud. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pauly Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 We already got the beet juice treatment. My bike stays put until next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qman Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 Put on about 175 today. Didn't see another bike the whole time! Nice day! A few bridges had the spray, but otherwise good. About 15 miles of gravel mixed in thanks to the GPS set to "shorter distance". Temps 33-38. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connie14 Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Battery tender and heated gear tails connected to the battery of FZ1. It is ready for winter. It would be nice if it got warm enough to wash and wax the bikes one more time this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2talltim Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 Mine is still sitting right where left it when I returned from the Fall Gap Trip. Still dirty, still pissing fork oil down its leg. Need a warm day to clean her up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustinNck1 Posted November 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 Got home from my first day at work at my new job to a package of bike parts. I couldn't resist, so I had to test fit the new pegs on the FJR. A little massage work here and there and they should work. Same ground clearance, but a greater distance from the top of the peg to the seat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Mac Posted November 24, 2017 Report Share Posted November 24, 2017 (edited) Enjoyed a nice 160 mile ride through the Hocking Hills area with a lunch stop in Laurelville diner with two friends on a Honda AT and a BMW GS. Roads were in great shape and no traffic. Edited November 24, 2017 by B-Mac 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
