BORING time of year

[Holden]

wanna see my 3rd degree burn grow skin slowly?

You should make an animated gif.

75! 60! I haven't seen those temps for a couple of months now. come -on bundle up a go for a ride. Monsters run fine when it's cold out.

75 degrees, you guys are really spoiled, we only see that kind of temperature a few times a year.
No time to be bored, this friday the national motor cycle show starts at the NEC in birmingham and the following week we get to see mr Valentino Rossi drive a Ford Focus WRC rally car in the last round of the WRC in lovely wet Wales. Also got two 1098s to deliver for my local shop and a monster 1100s to run in which will be their demo, not bad for a retired old fart.

This forum is getting SOOOOO boring now that winter is approaching.

Sorry, dude. Some of us are too busy riding our Monsters now that summer is upon us.

You guys inspired me to quite whining and go for a ride. It was 60 degrees here. Nice day, but the pavement was very cool and a bit slick.
Had a blast though and put about 80 miles in before coming home.

Great T-Day eve for me!

I'll try to get some pics on my track this weekend....

Here in Southeastern, Ohio it was a week of sun and temps of 70 degrees up to Nov.,14.

Ever since , we've had 2 weeks of temps in the range of 11 - to  40 degrees with only a few days when the sun shined.

It is suppose to get up to 49 tomorrow which will happen about 3:30 and dark at 5:00pm, starting out at 23 degrees.

It was snowing off and on all day yesterday.

Winter sucks for a person who has lived in 7 decades of Winter.

I may go for a short ride tomorrow. Don't imagine there will be much traffic or cops to deal with.

Just want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and hope you are all here Friday.    Dolph

bllaaargh lergh wwwaaaahrrghh.. yes I'm runk and in new mexico

Uhm okay, I'll try.

Last Sunday in Belfair, WA the "check engine" light came on while I was pulled over in neutral swapping the map direction pages in my tankbag.  Shut it off,  back on, the light was still there.  Shut if off longer, turned back on--and the light was gone.

Friday I rode the bike in to work so I could stop by the dealership on the way home to have the code read.  Speed sensor failure, but as it got better, we're not going to worry about it.

Sorry...the bike's been too reliable to make for interesting forum reading.

I think I could enjoy  the UK if it weren't for the rain.   Dolph

LOL.

What a bummer saturday turned out, bloody foggy and -2 degrees, plus a liberal coating of salt. Sundays even colder but went over to the ducati dealers in the car and had a good look at and sit on the new 1100s monster.It's a little bit taller than the 696 but i still felt comfortable even with my 28in inside leg and it also feels a bit more roomy. The red with gold wheels looks the dog's but i'm not quite certain about the white with gold wheels.
First thing in the morning off to the bike show

Here in oregon usually the day starts out around 30 degrees, and tops out around high 40's. Throw in alot of rain and slick roads and im about ready myself to throw in the towell this season. It only goes downhill from here til about April.

Had to run up north of Minneapolis last night, my wife was driving and asked, "Is that a motorcycle up there?" Sure enough there was someone riding on the freeway 70+ mph and it was only like 15 degrees (F). I didn't get a good look at it in the dark when we passed. I hope he stayed warm.
