    Season Four Starts Tomorrow

    I managed the day off tomorrow (well part of it anyway) and will be rolling the 650L out from the garrage to see how well it survived another winter.

    Temps have been in the upper 40's to lower 60's for tha past few days (rain/snow predicted for the wekend) so it is D-Day for me tomorrow.

    The AGM has been on the tender for the past week so we'll seeeeeeee what happens with a press of the button.

    Wish me luck...

    As requested, luck is wished.

    Some day I might make it to season four.

    Yeah, I got the Wing over four years ago, but it has never been parked more than a couple of weeks at a time,
    so I figure I'm still in season ONE.

      Well it shines. I had plenty of time to sparkle things, BUT...

      Went to the wood shop (heated) to grab the AGM off the tender and put my volt meter to it. .10V after being on the tender from last fall, until January. Left it sit unattended and about a week ago, put it back on just to be sure. POOP!!! It is on the charger currently, so we'll see...

            Yeah, it can be a little crazy. I avoid "the loop" whenever possible and usually just sneak through when on my way to Wisconsin to meet up with relatives for a day trip.

            Out here, you have to be on the lookout for the "Blue Hairs / Q-Tips (white hair-white tennis shoes)", who can't see past the end of the hood on their Lincolns and surely don't look any farther down the road, prior to pulling out in front of you.

              Up here, ya gotta watch out for the spooked deer and the "citidiots" (a phrase my son's brother-in-law coined for a certain breed that migrates north on weekends) that are pulling travel trailers, boat trailers, atv trailers with 4-10 atvs, snowmobile trailers (any time of the year) and they figure that since they're in the country the only vehicle on the road belongs to them......

                Citidiots, I LIKE IT!

                We're no stranger to them, as well!

                HEY, on a VERY HAPPY NOTE...the Extreme AGM took the charge (13.2V static) and is in the bike AND found ity's way down the road and back for the first sprint of the year!

                Can't say enough about the little concoction that I blend every fall. Took the air filter off and shot a little 2-stroke mix in the air box, set the petcock to PRI for about a minute, hit the button and BAM
                It fired right off and after a mintue or two, dropped the choke and was ready to go!

                STABIL and Seafoam FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
