    THat plexifairing (covers grips and has lowers) was a welcomed addition, I am sure.

        You know Jedz, you might want to consider those testosterone pills that are widely advertised on TV. No offense, but that little extra boost might help.

            I don't watch TV (anything main steam, cable bill turned into my monthly MC budget years ago) so unsure about these pills your referring too...

            So I went in for my Lyme Disease follow up all my blood work was solid so... I'm pill free and I like it like that. As for testosterone... The new Mrs. Jedz can attest I don't need anymore of that!

              Yes same ride!

              I just went out this AM low 20's. I'll be riding to work tomorrow for the wife needs the truck as her car is in the shop. 8" of snow expected. Going to be a doozie but the tires and lack of hp is a good combo and I'm confident in the little Suzuki will get me to work and back in the white stuff...

                    I get YouTube video updates from jedz...he is a character on those rides!

                    I love how enthusiastic he is...loves riding in cold weather.

                      I had the same news vs motorcycle moment. When I realized my New York Times home delivery was just shy of $1k a year, I thought, "Daily paper delivery, or put 11E back on road?"

                      You'd need an atomic clock to measure how long that decision took.

                          No ride. There is risk and acceptable risk. by noon today we could have up to 8 inches of snow, I'm not worried about me but the idiots on the road. Wife and I carpooled this AM and I'm hitching a ride with a buddy after work. I got out this AM to snow and an inch already. So I might do a local ride in the woods but I'm not down for 50 miles round in the snow today.

                          Norm, Sending you a text soon, just to catch up! Been a hot minute. Yeah this AM was icy dark and snowing, hard riding conditions it was suppose to start around noon and I can make my way home if I get there on bare roads but 50 miles of snow is a bit too much. Might go for a little jaunt this afternoon though through the woods!

                          That was me and cable TV. No Brainer... I get all my TV watching filled from Netflix, hulu and Youtube. Don't watch too much TV. Hate watching sports and local crap... Sitcoms and stuff like that do nothing for me. Rather be wrenching or if I'm on the couch I'm likey playing Super Nintendo or N46.

                          Still have a couple decades till retirement (currently on track to retire at 55) I'm sure at that point my biology will be a touch different! I'll enjoy what I got for now!

                            Last ride of the season? Hope not, wanna be more like Jedz

                            Beautiful, crisp fall mountain ride. Tried out my new $22 ebay windscreen. Love the look, and it's mildly functional, about $22's worth.
