  1. D

    not sure which snotter will be the weapon of choice this winter though.
     
  2. B like to get out as long as dry and no grit .don't like leaving it stood and not used.if its cold ride til your teeth chatter then head home and clean it. Beats sat watching telly .
     
  3. B, as long as there is no saltwater. As said above, the ride likes the cold. Also, as I trudge into the late fifties there can be no wasted days. I'm at that point in life where I do not buy any green bannanas......

  5. Always ride through winter ..... only use the car if I've got passengers to think of.

    Switched back to the mikunis and their choke (neighbours not happy with me blipping FCR's for 2 minutes at 6am waiting for it to warm up), so looking forward to the joys if 'icing' and guessing which cylinder will pack in first :rolleyes:
     
  6. taking out the spare wiring loom and dissecting it. Then seeing if I have enough spec 55A and lemo and deutsche connectors to make a new loom.

    Then, i'll probably get roped into DIY and it'll be spring again... and no new loom!
     
  7. Covering everything in ACF 50!
    Although never again shall I spray it on Doh!!!! It took weeks to drip off !
     
  8. I am considered quite skilled at body repairs, if you so require? :upyeah:

    As for me; definitely "B", with added thermals

  9. :) i shall bear that in mind
     
  10. Shall be getting the newly painted 999s back to its former glory since the Mallory low side.... And then having a tinker with the zx6 track bike I've bought to ensure it doesn't happen on the duke again:)
     
  11. Has to be A for me. I was a lot keener years ago, crossing saddleworth moor in the snow on my brand new daytona. I look back and think i must have been mental. Cold tyres and freezing fingers and toes, what was i thinking! My bikes a toy so it can be used when I want. It would be different if I was a commuter. I have hundreds of pounds of cold weather gear but cannot see me ever using them again. I have some alpinestars gore tex thermal gloves, nearly killed myself wearing them as I could never feel the throttle etc as I should owing to their thickness.
