Riding season slows down, but doesn't really end here in southern Ohio. If the roads are salt free and I get the urge I will ride. Heated jacket liners go a long way towards comfort. We usually load the Yamaha in the truck and head for warmer climates for a couple of weeks in February. We have several friends in Florida and we make the rounds to visit them and get in some two wheeled fun on the Yamaha. I am not a Florida fan so two weeks of that is enough for me. I have a bit larger maintenance schedule this year since my RT mileage calls for the transmission filter change along with oil, filter, and air filter. I did a bit of adjustment to the belt last week. The Yamaha is due for an oil/filter change and I have a new AntiGravity Lithium ion battery to install. As far as winter exercise I have a bike trail a couple of blocks away and I walk three miles every morning rain, shine, or cold and have an exercise regime that keeps me limbered up and feeling good. Between the Spyder and our other bikes we average 25,000 miles a year. I had to finish up my treatments for prostate cancer last year so that was cut to 10,000 miles. I turn 65 this year and I feel great so time to make up those lost miles

For us it was maintenance, adding farkels, and making things to add to the spyder (like a bracket that mounts on the handle bar for holding a GPS)
This year we just floated down the highway until we laid anker in southern Arizona . Now we are riding all year long.

Isn't it weird that in AMERICA our flag and our culture offend so many people......
but our benefits don't?

Did my service before i put her to sleep for the winter. During that time i added a second strut to the trunk lid and did a gauge-ectomy. I replaced the gauges with 12v cigarette style receptacle and a duel USB receptacle with an illuminated AMP readout. My battery is pushing 6 years and it's still holding 12.3 volts and the alternator is pushing 14.4 volts. Nice to be able to see and know when the battery starts to fail before it leaves me stranded.

Passing time on a rainy day -- correction, another rainy day, installing a set of Speed Bleeders and doing a partial bleed. Every vehicle of mine gets Speed Bleeders.
Ours is a red, black and chrome 2017 F3 Limited. Bought new in 2/2019. The avatar is my first bike back in 1952, a Simplex Servi-Cycle. Photo taken at the Barber Museum.
