my last few weeks have been spent moving the battery charger back and forth
between the two bikes and running them up to temp.

BUT

Woooo Hooo when I came home tonight a strip of driveway free of ice has
appeared looking good for getting out Tomorrow mega


Be putting new delkevics on the 1990 in the next few weeks

Smart Man! That's what I do when the weather is miserable.

I will be riding this weekend though! Forecast in the 60's Sunday!

Most of the ice and snow is gone from the gravel road I live on, now I'll have to see how long before the mud ocean dries up.

In the 50's this weekend and all next week, Monday (or possibly Sunday) will be a ride day!

Riding began in earnest Monday, lows in the 30's highs in the 40's..perfect!

Ran him out of gas on the was home yesterday (what do you mean reserve is on the bottom)

Nice to live in an area where everyone knows you, several people stopped, I had already called the wife. But one fellow had a gallon of gas with him(drives a diesel, works with diesel equipment, why he has gas with him is another question) so I got back to town and filled her up.

Arrow points toward 'on' now! Seems the fuel gauge was telling me correctly.

Default Coming out of hibernation

I caught my 93 peeking out of her winter haven. so I brought her into the garage for a new Vance & Hines SS2-R exhaust system, and fluid change. Wow, what it takes to keep a woman happy!
