normally my first new years ride would be at its earliest at the end of february but most of the times halfway/end march. but last weeks rain took care of the salty roads and last friday the sun invited me for a nice ride.

weather is too cold again for riding but i am still smiling : )

wish all of you awesome riding seasons. ride safe

Black on red looks great! That dual radial disc wheel is absolutely stunning!

Weather is not comparable to yours Roy, but it gets pretty cold here in the winter, not snowy cold, but cold. It hit close to 80 degrees F. the other day and I took some gratuitous video: )

In Georgia we are blessed in having decent weather all year.It rarely gets colder than the low 20's F and with heated gear I ride all year round.

Great looking X1 Roy!I always thought I'd like to have a Blue Racing Stripe X1 and came close to putting white stripes on my Parkway Blue S2T.

I don't ride in 20 degree temps very often,just referencing how cold it can get in N. Georgia and still be rideable with the right gear.The winter in my part of the state is pretty short.

I try and ride every year on 1Jan... Figure it's the best way to start the year! This year I got a very late start and the sun was setting by the time I convinced myself to get out..... Temps WELL BELOW 40s... So it was cold!! But worth it!

Thanks Roy. Your X1 is bad ass as well! Myself and few other badwebbers got that pulley done at Crossroads Performance. Not sure if they are still in business or not.

Very nice bike!

here depending on the rider, but can ride all year, i'm right on the coast so mild weather.
just because i ride my M2 a lot, have cracked the plastic seat surround in half , have joined it with 200mph duct tape
anyone know if it's possible to remove the plastic surround? like how will i mount the tail light & indicators?
thanks
also only thing that stops me riding is rain. unless i get caught in it
temps where i am ( South East coast Australia ) 10c to 40c
