Washed My Sporty
« on: January 10, 2010, 11:30:33 AM »
And charged the battery.  I have to ride tomorrow (this Week)because my car is in the shop.  I think it's supposed to be 20 degrees.

I really like my Nightster.

I like it too Swampy.  ;D You better bundle up or you'll turn into a popsycle.............Your bloods too thin to ride in 20deg weather.

It warmed up here in SE Alaska the week before Christmas, got up into the 40s. So I got the bikes out and took the grandkids all for a ride. I wish I could post pictures to show you guys but our internet won't support it. At least thats what my son-in-law said after three days of trying to post pictures of my new drilling.

Try to reply to a post and you'll see "Additional Options" to your lower left.  When you click on it you see "browse" whch should let you look for pictures on your computer.  They can't be big pictures.

Had my bike running on Christmas eve day (just for a warmup) but could not ride cause it was pouring down rain. Been in the deep freeze ever since but coming out of it at this writing.

17 degrees but it wasn't too bad.  I wore my new ski bibs.

The ski bibs worked fine.

Flannell jeans with underarmor give you a lot of warmth.
Deer hunting is mostly fun then you shoot one and it turns to work.

woke my Tubby up yesterday, It did not want to come out of hibernation. She's an older gal, 97 fatboy with a touch over 100k. I had the motor reworked right after I got it home, it runs a bit high on the compression side, so when it's in the mid 30's she takes some encouragement to wake up. Its still pretty cold, we're still ice fishing.
