has anyone taken their spyder out of hibernation?
I was looking at my sleeping Spyder Sunday. I almost uncovered it. I did charge the battery up. Hopefully I will have it running in the next couple of weeks.

I took my spyder out last Friday. I have a few hours of riding in already. this is the earliest I have ever gotten it out. I had a complete service done when I took it out of storage. my dealer charged me $350 which included an oil and filter change.

Both are ready to roll. All I have to do is check the tires for pressure, unplug the battery tender, turn the key and they are running. 40 ft. of glare ice in my driveway still holding me up. I am hoping to fire mine up this week sometime.

New Mexico has some perks
Drove the RSS on and off during the winter, but it's New Mexico. Bought the F3S last month and been driving it as much as I can to work.

We are just waiting for some rain to wash the roads of the salt. We have had two days of rain now, and as long as the temps hold up and they don't put down anymore salt, then we are good to go.

No hibernation, even in NY/NJ. Just avoid the active snow and ice. It has been a relatively mild winter and great riding. Come join us!

I put the battery in mine this evening. Started right up. No rough idle. I was glad. Checked all lights and tire pressures. Set time and date. Listened to the radio and all is good. First ride maybe this weekend.

I rode Saturday, and my wife took her first F3 ride on Sunday. Would have ridden today if I did not have an appointment at the bank today.
Just sayin'............
Three in the garage, and I think I can fit at least one more in.....and then we will have to build another garage.
The roads in NY are so bad that I am glad we bought a Ryker Rally
