dragknee66 Posted October 17, 2004 Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 Yes.. it must be 35 degrees but I had to get my fix in. Hit some back roads and then 270 home. I need to get some new leather gloves though, my current set dont do to well in the cold. I was toasty warm tho. Gassed it a bit coming out of 2 onramps and slid a bit (done on purpose of course). Good times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurkvinny Posted October 17, 2004 Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 I got my bike out tonight too, although a lot earlier in the night. Made it about 3 miles from the house, and decided, "F this". smile.gif Gotta buy me a winter riding jacket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragknee66 Posted October 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2004 hah. My alpine TZ1 holds up great to the weather with the liner in. My whole body stays warm actually.. some air hits my eyes tho and makes em watery.. thats about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

girlygirl18t Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 i took my bike out sunday to get a fix and now i have a cold...f*ing ohio weather. i think they should invent heated bra because gloves and a jacket can only do so much. do you guys get shit for not waring your helmet? my mom's friend told on me when she saw me in traffic without it on....i'm not 16. i mean what was she gonna do ground me?

I don't own a bike but come on whats gonna protect your dome when you go down? You probably don't wear a seatbelt either do ya. So would you rather look or feel cool or be alive?

nurkvinny Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Meg, I've been riding for 10 years. I have no idea how much riding experience you have under your belt, but once you see a friend wipe out, or a friend's girlfriend seriously injured b/c she didn't have a helmet on, you may change your thinking. There is no GOOD argument for not wearing a helmet. Please wear one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragknee66 Posted October 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 agh, another flame from me too.... you need to use your noggin Meg.. Ive seen too many people wipe out in front of my eyes.. all had their LIVES SAVED by the helmet on their heads. Its not worth it. Wear the lid.

Amy Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 Yeah I agree you have to be pretty stupid to NOT wear one.. why wouldnt you.. to look cool? umm cause its just dumb.. but if you dont them its just your brains on the road and not someone who does wear one. Be smart girl... put it on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Originally posted by TurboTANK: ^^^^ ur gonna have to bring out that fizzer next summer I am going to come out more now that I have my feet wet. I need to sync the carbs on the FZR in the spring then it will be more fun. Each time I cracked it open the past few months it would hesitate around 5-6 grand and scare the living crap out of me!

yotaman88210 Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 wear the flippin' Helemt--I work in the ER at OSU and most of the time the head is perfectly undamaged when a Bike Trauma comes in as long as the helmet was worn. The rest of the body...Well..I don't wanna talk about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
