Artmageddon Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 I would be out if my bike wasn't in pieces scattered around the garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 Rode to work today, and took it out for lunch this afternoon. I'm really looking forward to the ride home tonight, should be even warmer than it is now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJC1000rr Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 It was 24 degree's when I left for work, so no way I was going to deal with that! I'd also like to wait till most of the salt & sand is off the roads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
standout Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 was a little to chilly this am but just got back in from about an hour ride and i saw at least a dozen. Gonna clean her up a bit and pick some of the kiddies up from school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJC1000rr Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 Not too say I can't! =pI helped my friend two weeks ago when it was 18 degrees and around a 20-30mph wind. Rode his 929 from the storage unit that he had to clear out to his apartment (10-15min ride). I knew it was cold when the clutch was frozen and slowly sliding back to place from all the way in! Best part was pulling into his apartment lot and finding a new fresh layer of snow and Ice to ride on downhill and slanted! Artic Shield Gear 4 the win!!!

cbr600f3 Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 had mine out today for a bit, couldn't resist temptation once i heard the motor fire up but put her away till the salt etc is off the roads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorro Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 I dont get the whole salt argument. it's not like it's pea gravel. I dont think I'll be on 555 doing 2x's the speed limit. But I would think it's safe on the freeways (70/315/71/270) and other major roads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpinalFusion Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 Still have to change the oil on mine before I get it out. Might do it in the next week or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Relboc Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 Saw half dozen out in the Columbus area today. Little chilly early, but was a great day to ride. Sorry to those of you who had to work today! Feels good to be back in the saddle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbyte Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 I rode a little over a hundred miles today. SR79, 541, and SR60. A few others. Saw two other sport bikes on Creamery Rd near Zanesville. It was great out this afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagr Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 I saw quite a few today. Had a brute in front of me with no helmet. She shoulda had one on to hide all the ugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirPsycho Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 I rode to work today. Man that felt great. I think someone messed with my Hyd Clutch resevoir cap. It blew off at about 85 mph hit my in the chest. I thought it was a little early for the june bugs to be out because that is what I thought it was when it hit my. Then I noticed it was the cap. I turned around but could not find it. So off to work i went. Lucky the black rubber piece stayed with the bike and fluid did not go flying into the air and me. It felt really good to get out for bit. I did not see any other bikes out but there are about 5 in the parking lot at work.Come on springNick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g35tonv Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 it is going to rain tomorrow and a little on Sat morning. That would wash out the salt then its riding time in the afternoon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
