Kyle,
5 degrees? Brutal. Passion for your new bike must have carried you through.
I rode 25 miles when it was about 35 degrees. Had leather jacket but not leather pants. Ride was on a '79 RD(no fairings) and by the time I got home my legs and knees were so cold I could hardly get off the bike. My hat is off to you!
Wish you an early spring and some freakish warm winter days for some pre spring rides.

Very nice bike. [sm=smiley20.gif] [sm=smiley20.gif] [sm=smiley20.gif]

I did get out, I worked till 2 and then headed straight for grandma's to pull the bike out of storage. I love the bike (so much better with decent weather). Yesterday was the first time I have ever found myself on an open stretch of road to let her loose a little bit. I have driven some pretty fast cars and nothing compares to how a bike pulls and keeps on pulling, makes me all gitty inside. Hands down the best money I have ever spent.

5 degrees very brutal. I bundled up in my snowmobiling gear,but didn't have any proper gloves for riding a bike, so the ones I used had very little protection, when I got home I couldn't hardly bend my fingers thank god it was only 20 mins away. No frostbite and I warmed up eventually, so I can't complain.

Yup, it's hard to beat a good bike. If it gets nice out again, we'll have to go for a ride. Where are you located? Im in Plymouth for the time being, probably be in Shakopee in the coming months. Is this your first bike I foget? Must be. You'll have to get a few more miles under your belt and take my GSX-R for a spin. That'll tug your shorts. Take it easy. See you when it gets warm.

I am in chaska, so pretty close, and really close to shakopee. It is my first bike. I have had some previous experience, but I would still call myself a beginner. I am pretty comfortable on a bike, but not comfortable enough to take someone elses out for a spin, but like you say after I get some experience I would love to see what the gixxer's got.

You must not know much about Colorado, because we can tear up the Rockies all year round! Sunday's high was mid 60's!! And Parts of the high country had a foot or more of snow. Damn I love this state.
