Re:Weather : when do you decide to park it? 3 Years, 3 Months ago  
N56629= too many numbers for aircraft registration. Would need another letter at the end. Here in The Durrty South (of Dallas) I don't park 'em. The only time I restrict riding is during precipitation and below freezing for commutes, since so many Dallasites cannot turn off the sprinklers in freezing weather. The municipalities are the worst offenders here. I will ride for pleasure below freezing, and in the daylight, since I can control my destination and see most frozen hazards.

Your bike looks pretty good. Here in Australia weather lately un predictable,fine then cloudy,then rain. I keep my 883cc Customised bike out of the rain. Spent a bit on Mikuni 42 carby,V&H Black short shots,Ignition module,Mo Flo air filter, plus all the other accessories grips,pegs,etc lowered rear springs.Mabee next may put on a King peanut tank then Tripple trees or Springer front. Who knows? Bike sure goes! Vicki B.

Today is a good day to park it ... woke up to a few inches of wet snow all over the place.

We're getting it now but it will be up in the mid 50 by this weekend. Next week looks good also.

Unfortantely they've salted the streets so unless we get a good rain, which is forcast for the weekend, it's game over for this season.

I've been caught off guard by snow and no chance to winterize my bike. Bugged me all winter.

Okay... I wonder if this means that things are about to get really mean, around here?
