Yea... I took my new bike out for a ride last weekend (went south of Denver because it's still too cold in the foothills/mountains for me) and was hoping to take out my FJ yesterday, but nooo... Wife said we were working in the yard instead. Next Sunday is looking nice, though.
woke up this morning....white roads haha. I googled where you guys are located and it seems you are at
about 20 degree more south so should be warmer there. But maybe colorado is higher in elevation.Im at only 149 meter above sea level.
Chainlube : show this to your wife
Just checked altitude of Denver and it is 1 mile 1.609 meters ! that explains why .Maybe you have to re jet the carbs ?

I re-jetted with a Dynojet kit. I have installed dozens and dozens and dozens of these kits for customers over the past 35 years. Awesome kits!
lets get together this Sunday if yall are out!
The season is here.
Feeling like a rebel, I rode to downtown Columbia MO USA, right up on the sidewalk and parked in front of a business.
When I left, I encountered several walkers, pedestrians, and they -
All smiled and waved!
This picture is before any pre-season wash, and I forgot last years, so it's dirty.
It's cleaner now.
Hey - have a great riding season, best to you and yours!

I think I'll be out on Sunday!
I'll pm you my number in case you do end up riding! Dave you as well sir!
Had a good short ride on the east side of Denver - met up with Johnny and had lunch.
Dealt with some battery issues at the first part of the day - but seemed to clear up by the end of day. Also had several issues EFI related with the "new" again install - learned I've done basically NO tuning at extremely light throttle cruising and it is pretty rough in the off to on transition, and had some idle issues at longer stop lights that might be heat related (need to install the heat shield I forgot when I assembled it)
Good day overall! :drinks:
