Default Some one talk me outa it !

After 2 months of not riding my Harley, I'm thinkin of draging this 250 honda enduro out of my shed ( been in there for over 15yrs ), getting it running, then riding it up the bush a few miles and beating the **** out of it with a stick!
I know you guy's will want pic's if I do, but any of you guy's missin riding as much as I do already?

I say do it. Riding dirt bikes in the snow is a blast. I used to do that all the time when I lived back in Northern NewJersey.Miss those days

I miss riding my Harley so bad that I think it is affecting my sleep. I dream about riding it during the day and then when I go to sleep also. Today here in western NY we are suppose to get 10" of snow. Haven't rode in a month and a half. Doing mods is fun but doesn't replace riding. Come on springtime!

I'm from western NY too,and I remember the long winters. We rode snowmobiles in the winter. It is not the same as cruising down a winding back road, but it was stilla lot of fun. I got out of there in '83 and I'm now in sunny Arizona. I'm loving the riding season down here. It never ends. I think there is room for one more native New Yorker down here.

You don't really mean "beat it with a stick" do you? Sounds like a great winter project to me I always liked the old 4 stroke XL/XR enduros.

Yeah, I miss it way too much to be healthy I think... as a father of 3 under the age of 6, I should have many other things to do... The bike does not even come in for another month yet, and even then, I am in NY so it will be 3 months before I get to really ride it on a long trip[:@]

I think I will have to put it on the treadmill to do the break in...LOL
