Wish I could say the same. I've lived in the midwest my whole life. When I retire, it will be to a place with a longer riding season. Life is too short not to be riding.

 

Is that safe to do with an open air cleaner? Just wondering.

 

hmm good question I didn't really think of honestly. I never started the bike that day. Walked it out of the garage to wash and dry then walked it back in lol.

 

When my dealer cleaned by LR, which has a similar exposed air cleaner, they put a bag around it.

 

I cover my open K&N air cleaner with a plastic bag before I wash the bagger...

 

We're out riding!

 

Seems like the right course of action.

 

Still waiting to get in my second ride of 2018. The few decent days it got warm enough I was at work.

Hope to get my LR to the dealer within the next week or so for the new rocker cover seals.

 

Wow....cams are a must in the LR. Finally got my compensator issue resolved by installing a new bdl comp. No more knock. Super smooth shifts. No clunk shifting from N to first. And she runs like a bat out of hell. Fast and loud. I fell in love all over again!

 

I'm not against cams, quite the opposite as they're a great way to get good, usable torque. That being said, a good Stage I tune can get your bike running great. Using an aftermarket exhaust and a SESTP, I have 95 ft lbs of torque and I'm getting 45-46 MPG.
