Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

49 this morning and wet out from a drizzle last night. Glad I wore my glove liners.

Sun is warming up real nice though.

 

about the same down here, climate-wise.

No glove liners, heated grips treating me right though. Sun definitely warmed up...i was almost sweating by the time I got to work

 

Went to Motorcycles of Dulles, didn't bring mask so I couldn't enter and browse gear. Left to go find gravel

 

just keep you helmet on...

 

It was above 50 degrees when I rode into work this morning. So much nice though riding a clean bike since I washed it last night when I got home.

 

It didn't work

 

oh yea my bad i forgot you always use one of these





shame on the store for not having a box of free masks at the door though, I know a lot of people do genuinely forget at times, at least having the option at the door really makes it the shoppers choice at that point and not potentially turning a customer away

 

I can see the time, a few years from now, when I open my glove box and find a mask. Open the console of my truck and find a mask.Open a compartment of my suitcase and find a mask. It's going to be our little societal version of geocaching.

 

More and more of my guys are getting helmet comms, so I went out and got the Cardo Packtalk Black (got one for the wife as well since she also rides). Last unit I had was an old Sena. This thing is pretty cool! We were riding in NYC last night and it makes it a ton easier to keep the pack in tune with the leaders.

 

And on the subject of skid-lids. I wear one in the warmer weather and wear a full face in the colder months. I have a Biltwell Lane Splitter that I love.

 

Are they decent to deal with? Hoping to sell the F4i and pick up a naked. They've had a few over the last couple of weeks that seemed "reasonably" priced... for a dealer... Thought about going in just to look/drool but don't want to waste my time if they aren't cool.

 

He said they wouldn’t let him in the door, so I am going to go ahead and say they suck to deal with

 

True... didn't think about that...

 

New brraaap.

 

I havent been in or bought anything from them. But if i do, ill let you know. @4x4Runner might have

 

@Doc Samson I forgot what bike you have, but if you want to ride tomorrow, we should be in Woodstock area around 1030am. Going to explore some on gravel and a little dirt. Shoot me a PM if you want to come

 

ever consider undressing the f4i? maybe swap out the clip ons for a triple clamp with moto bar?

 

I have but don't really care for that "look". Just really getting an itch to try something newer as well...
