?????Winter???? that doesnt mean you just dress warmer when you ride? Had to check to make sure I wasnt on the Jet Ski forum.
Sky is bluer, wind is crisp, less traffic, lower hotel prices, beaches are empty.
Wont be too much longer now and it will be time to think about the last ride of the season which usually ends with me wheeling the RK into the garage for its final cleaning, and winterizing. I think the one thing that concerns me every winter is those days that the humidity in the garage is just right, along with the temperature, that I get condensation on the bike. Even though bike is well protected with polishing and waxes and gas and engine treatment products, and battery is on the trickle charger... I always get concerned when I see this. I usually throw the garage heater on for a bit until weather conditions change, but still is a sickening feeling.
How do you guys in the north deal with this?
Paying for storage is out of the question as the divorce and subsequent "financial agreement" has me on limited resources for a few more years....

I'm sure you're a proud Oklahoman as I am a proud Tarheel.......but if I never see OKL again, I'll be juuuuuust fine. 2 years of Lawton and OK City was enuf for me--that freaking wind!!!
Clean and good wax, put a few extra PSI in the tires and check before I take it out first ride, full gas tank, fresh change of fluids in all 3 holes, and plug in the battery tender then cover it.
SE Michigan here....no issues.

aint that the truth, all the trees lean in the same direction! but dang, those chicken fried steak sammiches at Del Rancho in Norman and steakes at the cattlemans steakhouse in OKC were good.
My 2001 still looks like new and I had the same condensation issues. As long as it is clean and protected you will only find a dirty bike come spring time. Nothing more.
Shoot, here in God's country we ride until about late January early February and pull it back out in late March. April is spotty because it rains nearly every day, all day.
