my thoughts on todays ride

[cuznjohn]

just about 70 degrees here today so i went out on the bike. we did about 95 miles and were stuck in some traffic, so here it goes

not sure if it is my feet or the heat but today after all the work i did on the bike, felt hot. the temp gauge when riding was at half way but as soon as i was in stop and go it went up to 3/4 but i didn't feel the heat when the radiator fan came on. i do feel like i now have the heated seat option on the bike, but standing on the floorboards every now and than fixed that. i did not check the gas millage i will do that on the next outing.


so that was today's ride and we will see when the weather warms up a lil more

Here's hoping for good results as the temps get hotter. :thumbup:

Have you let anyone else drive your spyder to see if they feel the heat as much as you?

cuznjohn,

I think I saw in one of your post that you have neuropathy. A symptom of autonomic neuropathy is the inability to tolerate heat.

:agree: John, If you bring that beauty up towards me; we'll figure out a spot for a rendezvoux, and swap us some bikes around! :thumbup:
The Missus and I did about a 105 mile short hop this morning; we wanted to get some yards chores done, and rain wa looking pretty imminent...
But; we were home by 11:30, and got the chores out of the way before the showers blew in. Life is good! hyea:
I even checked the oil level in the 1330; 750 miles, and it's perfect! :2thumbs:
