2015 - Big Day
« on: April 24, 2015, 10:21:02 AM »
Today is the day the bike comes out of winter storage. Short drive to the dealer for a couple of small warranty issues, and hopefully by mid next week I'll be riding again!!  It's been a long winter!!  Spring doesn't seem to want to cooperate either, it's still only 7C and grey out there

Where are you located?      Spring isn't cooperating here either (South Central Pennsylvania).   This past Saturday, it was 75F (22C).     Yesterday was forecast to be 53F (11.5), but only got as high as 41F (5C).

(announcer's voice) " AND FOR A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE, lets go to San Diego, where they've been having an untimely early summer during what should have been their rainy season..."

I have been riding all week, but last night finally some clouds came in, and today it was raining lightly, so I'm in the car. I saw a motorcycle officer going the other way, and he did not look happy. All the cars probably went to guys who got to work before him.

It's been down to the low fifties and up to eighty for the last week. Ideal riding weather.

I'd be willing to accept a dozen inches of rain though.
That's the combustion chamber of the turbo shaft. It is supposed to be on fire. You just don't usually see it but the case and fairing fell off.

Located in Montreal. Was putting the battery in and doing some checks   Actually saw a few white flakes falling!!  Bike ran fine to the dealer though.
