Default Winter blues

Traded my 06 Fxdli on a 10 flhtcu - hello comfort!!!! Did a bunch of work to it and now have to spend the next 6 months looking at it and waiting on the Canadian winter. I want to pass along a thank-you to everyone who posts information on the site which makes diagnosis and trouble shooting much easier.

Congrats.

I bitch about Michigan, but I flat out do not understand how you Canadians can stand winter.

Congrats on the new bike. Looks nice. What kind of work are you planning?

I put my bike away for winter. I ride snowmobiles, so it's time to start thinking snow.

I just completed the bars, speakers, stage 2, cams, sert, windshield, intake, exhaust and a few other small items. Now I need to get some miles once spring arrives.

+1 It seems the older I get the longer the winters are! the Dealer picked mine up the other day to do the clutch recall and I told them while its there go ahead and run it on the dyno and get it dialed in. Unfortunately when I get it back it will be time to put up for the winter
