Can't put the bike up yet as the weather for the next 7 days is in the 60's. We had 68 degrees today in and around Cadillac, Michigan and its a quite a bit unusual to have such a warming spell this late. Usually the deer hunter are out in tracking snow by this time so I guess the F6B is going to get more miles on it this year before the snow falls.
Still warm here in F L A... I did a swing up north on A1A to check out the storm damage...may head south this weekend !

Okay, I know I'm in Florida now, but I spent 14 years in the greater Philadelphia area - which doesn't get the Arctic push like MN, WI, & MI, but it gets cold.
My rule: as long as it is above 20 degrees and dry, I'll ride.
I do not have heated gear.
I rode the 95 Heritage, the 81 Wing, the '97 Valk and the F6B in those conditions to work.
Winterizing? Phooey.
20 and dry is my formula as well.Originally Posted by 53driver

80 degrees today in central MO, had a wonderful 250 mile ride
Than tearing the whole front plastic off it to get to that clamp, That sucks they didn't do much engineering for maintenance on these bikes as everything seems to be a major project to get to each thing you have to maintain. My M109R Suzuki Boulevard was so much easier to get to the things that needed to be done but of course that bike can't hold a candle to how nice this one is. It was just a hot rod with a big motor and no frills, and no room for storage of anything but your sunglasses. There was no place to even put a drink cup or a place for a holder that wouldn't have been right in your way. Good luck on the clamp and hope that is all that is wrong.Enjoy the weather Seadog... sometimes Mother Nature smiles on you ...

Nov 1 + 70* = 340 miles.
What a great November day I drove from Two Rivers Wis to Wis Dells and back home. I love the Dells during the offseason. I saw a few bikes but I think I saw more Corvette's. I guess they have to get their last ride in too.
