Took her out for a spin down the Lakeshore and up the DVP and back across Queen Street since there was some blockage on the Gardiner. Just hearing the engine was delightful. I didn't take to many turns, but was deliberately watching out for the sand. C'mon mother nature, do your springtime magic.

Hey Paul how goes the winter.......yea saw that its supposed to be + 10 on Sunday and sunny and the wife and kids are away. I see a ride in my immediate future. Did you just get on board on this forum? Haven't talked to Brad yet, but I'm sure he's probably itching like the rest of us. There's a couple of guys in another thread going on about a Zard's full system with an S2R800. You might want to spread the love. Give me a shout if you are up for something short this weekend. Title: Re: Out of Hibernation Post by: pw9990 on March 13, 2009, 07:05:36 PM Hey Brett, the bike looks good!!! I wish I pick up a 1k last year too. I checked out the new 1100s today at Inglis, thinking I may trade up but was not very impressed with it at all. Maybe it will grow on me some.
The winter goes OK, but would be better if it would friggin just go away. Must be the longest winter on record, dammmmmmmn. I am hoping just to work on the bike Sat, and do some short runs to test it out, then get out for the afternoon on Sunday. We'll see keep in touch PW Title: Re: Out of Hibernation Post by: tristantumble on March 16, 2009, 03:38:09 PM Had my first monster sighting here in Toronto. Last night, (march 15th) on roncesvalles, matte black M696, stock cans.
