Hot damn that's a nice airplane

Nice bike too, looks like it's asking if it can go with :laughing

I will not be riding when it rains or is threatening. I've had my fill of that and will not be participating then. :x
Cold out? No prob (it's fucking California for chrisake!!). Rain? Nope.

some may give you shit, but they are most likely jealous of the options you have to not ride in inclement weather :thumbup

i say, different tools for different jobs. if it's raining i have a tool for that, my cage :laughing
 
I don't care if anyone gives me shit. For at least 10 years all I had for my main transport was a scooter. I've done my time in the rain. Remember back in 1994 when we had the last really huge El Nino? I rode across the Dumbarton at around 6am to get to work in Redwood City. The wind was blowing so hard the rain was coming down sideways. I started in the right-most part of the right-most lane when I got to the bridge. By the time I was on the EPA side I was in the left-most section of the left most lane...and I had been leaning a good 15deg the entire time. And I rode in the rain for another 4 years after that. I've done my time and survived. I'm sure there are others here who could tell stories and still ride in the rain. Not me. I'm with you. The best preparation for riding in the rain is having a cage.

:wave

Rain riding has never bothered me. I mean, I hate it when the water seeps in somewhere, but the mechanics of riding are enjoyable.
Almost takes me back to being a new rider where I had to be very deliberate and measured with all of my inputs. Heightened awareness.

Oh, and here's today's pic.

I found that my rear sets were mounted with about 10 ft/lbs and old loctite, and Marsh Creek gave me a crack on my brake lens. Also discovered the price of replacing the tires, pirelli diablo supercorsa sp v2. Jeebus.
