well... the ride home wasn't all that bad since my hands were Hot. lol... I did freeze my toes through my smx plus boots though :lol:
I just took my trash out a minute ago and it's almost 15 degrees warmer out so it's a definate on riding in to work tonight :!: :D
I am going on a little ride before work too to go find some lawyer to help me with some speeding tickets in my cage.. :roll: 2 -19 overs in 4 days.. :eek: defective equipment :pray:
but back to the fun stuff!...
the knobbies I have on handled very well in the cold. they were able to be pushed fairly hard but they did have a finer - less forgiving breaking point from slide to low side from when the first time I got to ride on them last fall. Which was just from the dealer to home and they had the most horrible mold release effects that I've ever felt :twisted: I had fun with how dangerous they were but am going to have even more fun with how squirmish they are in heavy banking.
Funny how this bike banks through the twisties almost as good as my RR did :roll: :) :lol:
well time to boogie... :sprint:

funny thing is is that I decided to take a half day off of whim and it turned out if I woulda stayed the whole night I'd have been caught in the rain and then I woulda been taking all that cold medicine :roll:
the packing in the supertrapp I put on the klr is almost al broken in and Man is that fucking bike LOUD!!! :eek: :twisted:
