Resurection Thread: Who rode to work today?
 

The other one seemed to go well. Wonder how many people still do it in the colder months. Most of you know I didn't. I haven't driven/rode my own vehicle since last March except for three weeks in September.

What 'bout you?

Got the bike all ready saturday then yesterday about 4 it started raining and getting cold. This morning it was 30 degress and raining....so no. I didn't

Haven't ridden since Nov 1st. Probably have a good 3-4 weeks before it will warm up enough. Today was warm enough (42) but it was raining like a bitch.

You still got the FZ, I assume?

Yep, I don't see me trading up anytime soon. My wife is already annoyed with 3 bikes in the stable now.

Rode Saturday and yesterday...65 degrees...beautiful.

I don't ride to work because I have to wear a suit and look purty...the helmet smashes my hair down.:lol:

Tearing mine apart at the moment :dthumb:

Too cold at 5:30am for me to ride in. I am a wuss about cold weather riding though.

Mine hasn't been started since October. I won't be riding to work this year either...I'm getting a station car soon.

Too bad the trunks don't come in pink or you could commute everyday!!!

My bike is at home for the winter while I am at school. All weekend it was 60 degrees and I hated myself.

It is a beautiful and sunny day and I still have no seat on my bike. :no:

Would have been the perfect day to ride to work. :cry::cry::cry:

Rode mine down to the dealer for a tire change ....still waiting on them to call me back ! Geeez !

On two today, and yesterday, and the day before!:nee: cold, whats that?

I hate you.

I'm gonna go with no...

Mad respect.

:iagree: while it's not cold or rainy in Texas, I refrain from riding cause the bikes about to go up for sale as soon as the new left side farings I ordered come in and are installed. I don't wanna chance it. If I go ride it now, it'll be the one time that car rear ends me at the light or what have you.

we are 50-60's now and have a winter weather watch for tonight!! FREEZING RAIN!!!

Well, if it helps, the wind is gusting up to 40PMH in SE Tex now. Riding in that's no fun.

Yeah... I was supposed to be out all day at the track, no go with the weather. Though, I'll take the rain - more rain = silt fences being removed.

I don't think I count here... I don't ride TO work, I ride AT work.

well... i test rode around a parking lot on saturday, does that count???

other than that, haven't been on it since Nov 1...
Prob be another couple weeks or so

suppose to be chilly in the morning but mid-60s later so I might just bust out the hippo hands and ride to work tomorrow

38 this morning, but geared up and did it, the first ride to work of the season :rockwoot: Damn I was cold by the time I got here.

wtf are you burg? (your location is hidden)

I haven't ridden to work in a while, but with gas prices the way they are... I'm gonna start doing it more often!

Damn right. April or May I might start riding. Fuck off gas prices.

I rode to work this morning. 35-40 degrees. That's about as cold as I can stand without any real winter gear. It's a 10ish minute ride to work is all.

Maybe I can justify the savings in gas to buy that new 250 Yami motard...

Rode to work this morning was about 50 degrees at 5 am.

You motherfuckers are making me jealous. :ps:

Heart of America:dthumb:

Still no seat. :td: :tt: :no:

It is gorgeous here and I cannot ride! :cry::cry::cry::cry:

work? Hmmm...nope. No job here (right now). And lately, it's still been too darn cold here!

It got to 54 today-I'm still gonna wait 10 more degrees. I'm a pussy.

And all this time I thought you were gay

How much longer before you can break the bike out comfortabely(?)?

i'm with the guys earlier this damn expedition is banging me over the head in gas i'm gonna have to start riding my little whore to work

2-3 weeks probably. :idk: It gets up to 40 during the day but in the mornings it's still below freezing.

We are averaging around 50 now.

I rode today. It's absolutly georgous outside. It's supposed to get around 70 today.

:tt:

Might be warm enough by the time I get back from Orlando.

:wtf: are you doin' in Orlando?

Vacation

And you weren't going to tell me... I'm hurt.

Got 'em. I don't think you'd be interested in what he does on his vacations, OSP. You like women...

Nah, my kids don't need to see anyone puke. :lol: I'll be doing family shit all week, I wont have time to party with you.

WEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKKKKKK

Not me, it's OSP that pukes.

No, it's weak you won't even hang out with him for a bit. Not even meet the guy face-to-face.

Haven't been riding to work but have been riding everyday afterwork...spring fever is kicking in big time !! It was 74 yesterday. :rockout:

The R1 or R6? Is one a track bike or something?

Me = R1 mostly

Wife = R6

me.

By end of next week, IF the snow holds off.

Understood... Asshat.

Can you blame him?

GORGEOUS ride in today... very nice. :D Would've been nicer if not for the cop I was following the entire way, but riding 5 over the speed limit is better than not riding at all. :D

Nice. When does it start getting humid there? Or is it all the time?

It's pretty much all the time...

Yup. :no:

But this time of year it's wonderful, doesn't feel muggy or stifling.

I also had a great ride in today. No cops infront of me :rockout:

I did. The ride was cold, the parking sucked.

yikes, not looking forward to coming back to that

Not yet.

It's not looking good all week.. :panic:

Hurry Home...your dog misses you!! HEHE

my dog is prolly loving it there, more animals then even she can play with

I'm back in the game. Rode to work yesterday. Riding to work today. Riding to work tomorrrow...wait I'm off tomorrow.

Correction: Beating the shit out of twisties tomorrow!

I rode today. Its going to be raing the next 3 days though..

Rode today as well. Foggy and a good chance for rain. I got my slickers. I'm not worried. I've riden through a flood before....on the GIX! But that's pretty much what Houston does: it's either drout, or it's underwater.

Rode again. The rain decided to hold off 1 more day. :rockwoot:

I'm off today...time to get this Bolt legal and bang up some twistie type pavement.

Rode yesterday, but today Vader is in getting the first service done. probably the only service the dealer will do on it.

Does the 1125 need the TPS reset like the XBs?

I do all of the service I can on mine.

Some do, some don't. Mine is fine to this point.
They do have the first ECM flash out for it though.

I do to, but being as it's a brand new bike, I'll let the shop take the first look at it. and since there still is not a service manual out for it...

im giving back my jeep and only having a bike, so yeah, i ride to work, everyday :rockwoot:

Previous owner just put in a K&N and with the drummer he said it needs the TPS reset...claims it to be a 35 dollar job at the dealer.

what the fuck is a tps?, sounds like something you get when you leave your tampon in to long cause you couldnt buy a real Vtwin

:ps: Throttle Position Sensor.
and you're just jealous cause you aren't cool enough to own a buell.

and on the 1125, you can check it yourself. I believe there is a way to zero it yourself too... :rockwoot:

Aren't there TPS reports on Office Space?

do they require cover sheets on the TPS reports?

Kawi's have TPS's.



"Yes I got the memo"

I'm thinking most newer bikes do.

I'm just starting to get the hang of what the 1125's ODIS system can do

I'd love to do it myself...unfortunately it's gotta be hooked up to some whacky machine to read it.

Get a power commander, you can check your throttle position with that and adjust if necessary.

Rode to work today.

Raining... So I took the cage to get the wheels aligned and had the colling system flushed.

It is gorgeous here so I rode. :rockwoot:

Although now that we just bought a convertible it is going to be a hard decision on which one to take each day. :panic:

Along with my bike I have a mustang convertible and it just sits in the driveway whenever its nice so that I can ride.

I am sure that is the way it will be soon enough...but this is my first convertible so the excitement has not worn off...if the excitement ever wears off. :whistle:

I ride to work everyday.

Wish i could say the same. Any day that its warm enough and not raining, im on 2 wheels to work.

I rode, and plan on riding tomorrow, then the next day

Did another race today. Against myself. Up and down Lookout Mountain. Then I stopped at the store for some groceries. Not the same as standing on the podium after a race, but I did ride.

did you buy yourself one of those little chocolate coins wrapped in gold foil?

Not riding today...gotta run a few errands before work.
