Re: TOO COLD be careful
Yeah, I know how ya'll feel.
I had to come inside tonight from the shop cause it was chilling me when it dropped to about 63 degrees. It made it to 75 on the patio today with a small cooling trend headed my way. Probably need to set a fire tonight when the house temp drops below 68 though, it's so inconvenient to wear extra clothing and do all this extra work to keep warm, buggar ! |
Re: TOO COLD be careful
Yesterday morning I was taking my daughter and newest granddaughter to the airport and the temp was -38 without the windchill . Thankfully there was no wind.

Re: TOO COLD be careful
The ride into work yesterday was fine, but I didnt anticipate a 16 hour shift. We re-fused and changed out transformers all night and up until 7:30 this morning. Went to start the bike and it would barely turn over...not fast enough to get the fuel injection going. 1 degree temp plus windchill probably jelled the oil so thick it would not let the starter spin the motor fast enough. It has a fresh hot battery and has always been on the Tender...powerpack booster and a truck with jumper cables had no effect. I'll have to push it into the building this evening to warm it up I suppose. I know the limit of the bike now anyway.
