Rode to work today!

It was a brisk 28 degrees this morning and at 70mph its even cooler but when I leave work today its gonna be 50! Suffered the ride in for the ride home>

if you wait on the weatherman you never ride was advice I was given 20 years ago when I bought my first Sportser
coldest ride to work 18 degrees on it feel it through the needle holes in the stiching of my gloves

34 this morning. Pretty nice back home at noon. Gonna take wife's "fair weather" 950 tourer out this afternoon to freshen up the gas in the tank.
Dittos on not waiting on the weatherman. Of course that's easier to say in N Texas!

I moved my Harley FL today started it up, put it on a trailer, took it to it's new home!
The KZ's are still sitting in the dining room, 2 engines in the garage. Took back
7 tote bins of aluminum, side covers, cases, bad heads, stock pistons no one wanted, couple of fork legs, rims and some stupid Honda 750 parts that sat for a few years. 353 pounds of aluminum! Left with $190 bucks and less stuff to move!

well ride home sucked. My clutch cable broke. went and got a trailer and abuddy helped me load it. It was a tilt trailer and before i could get the pin in my buddy walked off and off went the bike on its side and in the mud! I think all that broke was a highway peg. could have been worse

It's perfectly okay to ride and shift gears without using the clutch.
Getting started from a dead stop takes a little practice, but is easily learned.

Once had a clutch cable break en-route to the inspection station, but persevered on through as if nothing was wrong, passed with flying colors, and got my sticker! :lol:

Good Fortune!

High 30's this morning then mid.70's after work.

My little shops about five blocks from work
so I drive the van to work and at lunch go get the bike
