mine needs a chain BAD...I mean you can't go over 9k rpm before it starts jumping teeth. It's parked for the winter. Rode it into cincy and put it in a storage unit until spring. Tires are good tho lol.

about the cold... unless you got leather fuhgettaboutit. You need something that will not only keep the wind out but stop it in its tracks. You could put 3 hoodies on and 2 pairs of jeans and you'd be freezing your *** off in sub 50s. I was out today, about 48 or so in my icon motorhead with the liner(chest and arms were warm)... other than that I had on gloves, jeans, shoes and I thought I was gonna die

 

I feel ya Soccer, mine is away for the winter now also (prolly only got to ride 3-4 times in last 2 months). Sounds like you need a winter hobby though, i think we all do.
