So how many of you have parked them for the winter?

[NickB]

you can put it in my garage....

[94civicex]

your gonna wann change the oil before you store it anyway, and i usually wait till the snow files till i offically park it for the winter

[Slowica]

I wait till theres snow on the ground and driving it becomes a pain in the ass

[01tib]

I know your talkin about bikes but I drive my car year round... bahahhaa

[HandoEX]

Mine still hasn't moved since the August track day. I've ridden in November with my last two bikes though and I'll ride the Zuma plenty more before the snow flies.

I apparently need to invest in leathers... or at minimum a good set of cold weather gloves. Did find one pair I really liked but they were about $100 more than I wanted to spend right now.

Actually gonna go see if the pig will even start. Buddy said his was a crapshoot any time it got around 45*.

I spent most of the day wanting to be out on the bike. First job of the day was out in the lake park area.. would've been a perfect day to ride. and then i realize i'm stuck on call until monday and can't ride at all this weekend.

[dubbsy]

yeah, I ended up getting called to go work this weekend so no long ride for Saturday...

[redrocket]

For the last 23 yrs i have riden on or after my b-day, which is in the first week of Nov.So mine is not ready for storage yet.

Yeah that's Mr. Healy. He was my 8th grade science teacher and rode his motorcycle to work everyday he could.

My Sv is parked in my garage waiting for me to get back in December and give it an oil change and then recover it.

[Slowica]

hahaha i remember seeing healy riding in the snow

[dubbsy]

happened to be back around home yesterday so I decided to ride to work after lunch. Still a little cold for the gear I have.

Too damn cold in the mornings, very little time after work before it gets cold, and I'm probably going to be out of town for harvest every weekend until snowfall. Going to 'try' to make it 58 miles home between rain showers this afternoon to park it for the year.

I'm still waiting for one last decently warm day for a ride. Then I'll probably put it away for the winter, or put it up for sale.

Yesterday would've been a great riding day before it got real windy. Little pissed considering I took the afternoon off work Friday and rode the first 23 miles (of 58) in rain to get it back home to park it for the winter.

Might still take it out a couple times when I'm back home for harvest if it's a nice day - otherwise I'm done for the year.

I'm gonna be the first into storage and the last out the way it is looking.

finally warmed up so I could tear some things apart to figure out a game plan and then some stupid fucking river has to go flood and take up all my time.
