Sweet ride!

16*C is just over 60*F if anybody is curious.

Only 37*F (3*C) here in Virginia, and I'm still thinking of going out, but probably on one of my bikes that has a fairing!

I was taking of this morning about 8.00 AM but I went back home since it was only 37*F and waited a hour or 2 so it warms up a bit and this afternoon it was 60*F, nice driving weather.

It's been around 14°C (57°F) here today. Took a ride up to the coast. Loads of other bikes out on the road taking advantage of the good weather. I even managed to ride in my summer gloves on the return journey.

It is indead a pistol case ( make I didn't now ) , I made a metal bracket to mount it on because the case itself is a bit of thin plastik, I added the HD logo to it to make it of.

It's okay, but one can consider the big font as screaming.
