I'd still rather be on a Goldwing than in a car

And you wouldn't and that's cool.

Finally!  :rofl2: :cheers:


Choosing a car based on reliability is like choosing a wife based solely because she is punctual. There is more to it than that...

Dude, get a grip. DJ was discussing the merits of a metallic brown scooter, and how well it hid the dirt.  :rofl2: :rofl2: :rofl2:

I have every right to be offended at that in a thread as cool as this one.  :P ;D

Put down some racedeck flooring for each bike:






Also went on probably the last ride of the season. Never say never, but it got down to 3C so was a bit chilly. The heated seat and grips made it bearable.

Get a heated vest or liner.I use Warm N Safe. Best thing since sliced bread for season extending!

Have a coupon code if you need it.

My body wasn't cold at all, but I have no intention of riding in weather colder than 5C.

What a fantastic colour on that Triumph!
