Rode to work... again. I need to win the powerball...

pegjay · 10-13-2008, 11:59 PM

I brought my by home from the dealership after it 4000 mile inspection. I had Motul synthetic oil put in. It must be me, but there seemed to be a jump in preformance. It ran a lot smoother. Motul

cardude720 · 10-14-2008, 02:48 PM

Rode to school @ 7am=f-f-f-reezing....... Riding Home soon gunna be sweatin'

Alirght so everyone knows that they check themselves out in the side/back of oil tankers because they are mirrored. well at a stoplight a pickup carrying a mirror pulled up next to me (what are the chances of that? And it bieng aimed directly at me?) and I had a revelation: I look cool.

That is all.

cardude720 · 10-14-2008, 05:17 PM

Hey cardude720,what temp is freezing for you in SoCal? I ride to work at 5 am,some days it's only 3 or 4 degrees celsius.

cardude720 · 10-14-2008, 10:02 PM

Alright you caught me not freezing! Probably more like a sauna compared to your ride. About 45 F. I was fine except for my legs because i only wear jeans. Do you where any type of windbreaker for your legs? like leathers or anything. And I am from Canada (Montreal) so I do know what cold is... but then again I was never on a bike (or at least one with a motor) in Montreal.

05-M50 · 10-15-2008, 01:49 AM

I removed the reflectors, moved the license plate up a couple inches, bought a Metzler 200 and rode to work and bible study! It's been a productive day....

smithksor · 10-16-2008, 05:02 PM

What does the wider tire do for you - does it change the handling at all, or just look super cool.

Obviously, I'm no mechanic, but I need a new rear tire soon and was just wandering.

Never mind, found about a zillion postings on that topic. Looks good.

pegjay · 10-16-2008, 10:08 PM

I took about one and half hour ride on country roads. It was a beautiful day for riding, in the mid 80s, clear and the air was clean. The leaves don't change color here, but it was still a wonderful ride. I'm going to ride out to the desert next week. Three hours one way, that will be great too.

Basically did the same think as you last evening. About a 1-1/2hr ride after getting home from work. Was about 84 degrees when I left and about 72 degrees when I got home. Was very relaxing though.

cardude720 · 10-17-2008, 11:17 PM

bought some eylet screws w/bolts & washers to use with bungee cors for whenever i need it. im not putting it on now because i don't even have my rear seat on to bungee something on to. Also bought a T-handle hex set from the home depot for when my exhaust comes in.
