Default patience

Finally made the decision on pipes, AC and a fuel management system. Ordered V & H big shot staggered which should be in tomorrow. So, don't we get hit with a friggin ice storm last night and today! Now I gotta be smart and not ride to the indy until it's safe enough, or, maybe I could slap some chains on for traction. The anticipation is killing me! Sorry, just had to vent...

Yea, same storm. And You're right. And except for the past week or 2 I've been able to get a cold ride in every few days. I'm just anxious to get her running and sounding like she should. By the way, beautiful bike,

I figure with the weather like this I'll get things done in the new addition (keep the wife happy) and when it gets warm she won't be upset when I go out for an all day ride to blow out the cobwebs.

Who's cobwebs? Yours or the bikes?

airwoof,
You need any ice for your drinks, or maybe a snow cone?
We got plenty of both around here, 23 inches of snow yeaterday.
With a good chance of acouple more before tomorrow morning.

I love my V & H BSS. Great sound and they look great too. Especially like the fact they both run under the rear foot pegs so my wife stopped burning her boots on the old exhaust pipes. BTW, it's cold in Orlando today. I finally got to ride with some leathers and gauntlets on. Going down to near freezing tonight but no ice thank you. Had my fill of ice storms when I lived on Long Island.

They look great. I'm still waiting on the install, chomping at the bit (pipes aren't in yet). So I took a 10 mile spin after work today. 25 degrees in Montgomery County Pa. If it wasn't for my hands freezing I'd be ok, that and dodging ice spots in the road. Going to be 45 degrees Tuesday, things are looking up.
