Title: That time again
Post by: GSXR RACER MIKE on October 09, 2006, 01:03:05 AM
Just a freindly reminder to all of you who run water in your bikes, it's starting to get cold and you don't want to pop your freeze plugs so you better get that water out of your bikes! Here by Blackhawk Farms they are forecasting lows in the 20's overnight with snow possible mid-week!

Bummer, I guess I will have to go out to the garage and flick the switch on thermostat to 'heat'.

Doesn't everyone store their race bike in the house?  or is that just Paul?

Yep, still in pieces....

It's a subject we don't bring up much.  Renee's school schedule, remodeling the house, and life in general....  Well, there was no time or money for racing.  However, the respite from racing will be temporary.  Renee's has only four years of high school to get though, the house should be done sometime next year, and we will be putting the racing fund back into the budget.

Your cooling system must have vibrated off, seen it happen to a lot of HDs. Don't worry too much about though, it didn't work very well in the first place so you'll be fine without it. :lmao:

How's the collarbone doing?

Pretty much on schedule I guess.  Shame I couldn't ride last weekend.  I prefer to think of the Buell's vibration as a massage.  :biggrin:

Makes sense to me Don.  Weren't you the same guy who considered Metallica at 110db to be soothing background music? :kicknuts:
