    I got in about 60 miles myself.....once the fog cleared.
    I don't know why I even bother putting fuel stabilizer in the gas tank, as I've been able to ride in all 12 months every year for the last 6 or 7 years now.

    Default Second tank

    Picked up my RT Dec Just before the Snow hit and the temp went below freezing for 10 weeks so it's been hiding in the bike shed but have been able to get out a few time this last week and Just Yesterday I filled the tank for the 2nd time.
    But not all was lost with the 10 weeks did get some stuff done, Gas Door in seat, Mirror Turn lights, Rear Light kit, Power outlet and Dual USB charger in the glove box, Back Rest and Arm Rest installed Drink holders front and Rear now it Sway bar time (Ordered Yesterday)
    Looking clear today may get out and run for another tank

    Got another 100+ miles in the RT today first time with 30+ MPH Side Winds, Damn I didn't like that not ever a little tried as hard as I could to keep a light touch and relax but at the time I was in the right lane and next thing I know I was across the Fog line trying to get it back in the lane.
    First thing in the morning I will go by a GOOD gauge the two I have (small chrome ones) don't agree with each other. Just wondering if it could be tire wall flex.

    That's great. We got in about 70 miles our self. Went to a new Mexican restaurant, That was the only bad part of the ride. But it was a good ride after all. Yeah

    Sounds great . I tried to ride but my broken hand and wrist are just not up to the task yet. Got down to the first corner and turned around. My hand surgeon said nice try but I still have 12 more weeks. BUMMER!!
