I hate these twist shifters. My wife's last 2 cars have had them. They've taken all the fun out of driving
anymore.

You ever put it in reverse trying to change the radio station

After 2 years of procrastination and no motivation, it lives. Longest engine swap ever.

Been there-done that--not fun. There isn't a true waterproof rain gear made for riding in that kind of rain. .

It really sucks when you get caught in rain you didn't expect without a rain suit.

I NEVER leave home in the rain but many times have made the trip home in it. It's surprising how fast one goes trying to beat the storm home. The worst part of riding in the rain is the time it takes to detail the bike again.

Honestly can't say I ever thought I'd see the day I was riding around on a motorcycle with Christmas music playing on loud speakers but I guess there's a first for everything.

I had 8 above this morning---still no snow yet though. It's up to a balmy 27 now.

You can keep all that over your way.

It could be much worst here. I remember many years putting our fishhouse out on the ice on Thanksgiving weekend. The lakes aren't even froze over here yet this year although a few more single digit nights will take care of that.

I honestly didn't think a motorcycle needed a dash indicator to tell you it was cold!
