There seems to be plenty of you guys that hit the streets from that area, it shouldn't be too tough and should get plenty of interest. It'll drive more people, especially a younger crowd, to get bikes and be a part of a local social group. Just an idea to kick around to other riders up there.
Yeah bro, I got to do some work on her before I hit the streets... some rough areas here and there, but whatever...as long as she's rolling.
Yeah I want to try and get something started up here. We had a bunch of spots down N Miltown where fools would hang and kick it after a day of riding or just to meet up with cats.

Then too with those condtions, doesn't a bike run leaner, and if a person is using higher octane fuel, doesn't it burn hotter than lower octane? I wonder if anyone has put a piece of cardboard in front of the radiator on a bike to restrict cold air like a person would do in a car to keep it running warm.
New bikes computers change the amount of fuel needed to adjust for air temp....thats y fuel injection is so nice.....another reason y there is no choke
