only one thing worse than not having a motorcycle, having it and not being able to ride due to weather or health - Weather is my barrier today -

Hi docdoru
Just a modification that my surgeon thought would look good while my shattered (40 plus pieces) knee got better. 'T' boned by a cager. Off now and back on the road on spyder. Old fools like me never learn.nojoke

Weather might be better in Florida but there is no curves. Everything seems to be flat and straight but I would take some flat straight roads right now if they was not covered with salt. I learned realquick after I traded the Spyder for 2 wheels that those small patches of salt on the edge of the road are not 2 wheel friendly. 20 deg here now and the roads are covered with loose salt after a near miss snow yesterday. Not even enough moisture to disolve the salt. I hope the economy picks up this year because cold winters are meant for traveling south to warm wather and riding. No money left this year to cover the cost of southern trips so I guess I will just have to work harder bfore next winter.

Come on Spyderman....I only live an hour south of you and though it was 22 degrees at 10:00 by 2:00 p.m. it was up to 29 degrees and feeling rather balmy (except for the wind). Put those long johns on and go for a ride!:2thumbs:

I wonder if spyder could be rigged to take engine heat through vents toward legs of rider. Seems possible given the panels.
