Gettin that Spring Fever - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

MTVolusia · 02-26-2008, 06:29 PM

I had the local Harley shop put in my Andrews 26 G cams and now I have Spring Fever. I can't wait to put some miles on my UC. It has a deeper sound and feels a lot more torquee in the 2000 rpm range. I,m hoping my gas mileage either improves or stays the same. Anyone else getting that spring fever? Sure has been a long winter.

Same here, I ride year round, but I can't wait to do it without dressing like and eskimo, and the pot holes are terrible right now. I did not ride nearly as much this winter as last!

I ride year round in Texas, but like others here...I'm tired of having to layer up on clothes.

I leave in the a.m. and it's 30F...the afternoon is 77F...and the evening is 50F.

The drastic diff in temps over the course of one day is KILLING me already!!

I wish I could ride now....there's so much salt and sand on the road here that it isn't safe to walk fast nevermind ride a bike.
