Premium Member 2and3cylinders Posted November 11, 2022 Premium Member Share Posted November 11, 2022 I'm so glad we're back it was getting trying on the FZ 9 forum I'm glad I started that thread though because instantaneous gratification is always wanted, well for most people They're tour can't be any bigger than my GV, especially with the MRW tour spoiler Sidewinds yesterday were unbelievable when trucks went by Broke the record though of 75 unbelievable tonight it will be 28 I have a smaller stockish mid size screen with the spoiler that probably would be better, especially with my hand grip muffs that I started using last year With the oem heated grips you can wear lighter gloves down to 20 After that the rest of you is in trouble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporting Member dazzler24 Posted November 12, 2022 Supporting Member Share Posted November 12, 2022 75 (24) down to 28 (-2)!!! That's some jump in temp! Yikes! Things are only just starting to warm up here after being in the low to mid 20s(C) for so long. Very unusual for this time of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member 2and3cylinders Posted November 12, 2022 Premium Member Share Posted November 12, 2022 76+ 75 was the record! Normal average now is highs in the low 50s and lows just about freezing or less 10 day forecast is highs in low 40s to hi 30s, and below freezing at night!! Global warming?

Premium Member 1moreroad Posted December 29, 2022 Premium Member Share Posted December 29, 2022 Likely last ride of the year. I rode by a friend's sculpture and back into town. About 25 miles today and 7700 for the year. A week ago the temperature was 3. Today it was 64. It will probably rain tomorrow and Sat, but I'm looking forward to a New Year's afternoon ride in the same temps. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member 1moreroad Posted January 1, 2023 Premium Member Share Posted January 1, 2023 High temp of 77 so back out and riding on New Year's Day. Might see tornadoes tomorrow or Tuesday and temps will be back to freezing by the weekend. Thankful for this brief break in the weather today. Took a picture with oooold "truck 1"/engine 16. It's a 1988-ish Chevy with a 4 speed hi lo manual transmission IIRC. I never drove this one but I did drive it's twin, and I was never very good at it unless the road was flat. This one was sitting on the back lot, but I didn't even realize any of the 88s were still in the department inventory! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporting Member betoney Posted January 1, 2023 Supporting Member Share Posted January 1, 2023 After crazy weather the past few weeks including snow, windstorms, freezing rain and flooding, New Years Day graced me with a brief window of riding weather, the temps stayed at 42-44F for the entire 3 hours but that was good enough. 3 ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick123 Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I sold my red beauty FJ09 3 weeks ago and couldn’t stand my empty garage. Replaced with 2019 Tracer 900 couple of days ago. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes few extras transferred already from FJ to Tracer and ordering few more right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found out after taking this photo earlier that there was a bad crash on this crossing a few years ago , a semi ran the lights / barriers and ploughed straight into an Am-trac train , killing ( obviously) the semi driver and a few passengers on the train 😕 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a Brit living in the U.S , I've wanted this Lid for a couple of years but never seemed to be in stock so I grabbed it when it was available 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
