Wow Jay! We are lucky if our lows get below 80. And with all the rain, the skeeters are getting bad.

I reckon someone else is getting OUR summer! Wife and I had a hot time in May, on our travels to Hungary and back, until we got to France on the way home. I'm wearing three layers most days at present, it is so cool. What am I talking about? I wouldn't wear any more in winter! The only consolation is we don't have the heating on......

Its winter here in NZ and I have been wearing less than you!!!! No such thing as winterising your bike on the Nth Island :-)

We've averaged ~96* so far in July. Peaked at 103* today. It's just been plain, blazin' hot. Hmmmm......, it must be summer in Mizzery!

beautiful day in Vancouver and area today. Tons of bikes on the road.
Carlotta purred away on the ride under the 2 of us.
I recently switched to a Twintec single fire. It may or may not have changed the power, but she sure sounds great at idle.
Lots of stares, and a couple 'beautiful bike, man' s.

Hey Dale! Beautiful here to but hotttttt! We had a Fl. Crew get together today and I logged a short 270 miles.

I have a Daytona Twin-Tec ignition in my bike too, but I left it dual fire. When installed about 6 yrs ago it seemed to make the bike run crisper and smoother.
