Unhappy Sick sick sick

Man the weather is nearly perfect today for a short little ride, but no bike to ride. Cant wait to get her back from the shop, hopefully next weekend. All these bikes going by the house don't help any either.

Feel your pain, the bike is in the garage with the front end disassembled for the Mono-tube install and waiting for the tank lift to be finished, lizard light install and Shotgun Shock switch wiring relocation to the instrument console, the weather here in Sunny SouthernKalifornia is perfect but my work schedule has kept me from finishing up the mods...

Layers, up to 5, is the key to staying warm, Someone's gotta do it, LOL

The tropical winter holidays & the summers make it worth while (plus can't complain about the paycheck)

Sandtrap10, yes that is our bike in the video. We love the pipe not to loud and when you get on the throttle it barks plus we have received a little performance gain. Also when I worked in Planet Houston Texas at the airport IAH had to wear layers in the winter, one night -40 with the wind chill factor. Thermal underwear, T-shirt, work shirt, jacket, two pairs of gloves, one cotton and the other leather, paints and two pairs of socks and oh yeah my terrorist beanie...
