Who Rode Today?

[WuzzaCBXRider]

I got out today and was going to ride a 200 mile loop but ran into heavy cold fog so I cut it short. That’s a lake in the distance, such as it is. Until the snow melt in the spring (if) there’s enough snow this winter, all the lakes and rivers will be low.

I've had a couple over many years.
I wear a snowmobile balaclava as well.
My head, neck, or face never gets cold, I actually open the helmet vents sometimes using them.
I also have a pinlock shield, so no fogging problems.
I couldn't ride in the cold without it.

You need a Nolan QuietRider to fit into the bottom of your helmet(several styles and they fit any helmet).

Edit typo
Should say

NOJgear Quiet Rider, not Nolan

The QuietRider has a flat plastic edge that just pushes in between the helmet's shell and pads.
Mine isn't pushed into my helmet in the picture.

Thanks man! I have a knit pullover neck gaiter and a leather face and neck cover that goes as high as my nose with a breathing slit. That cold weather piece looks the best.

Yes sir
They definitely make a difference in the cold.
There is very noticeable reduction in wind noise too, very strange to hear so little.
I ride with earplugs, and that is with or without them too.

My 55th birthday today so a 710km loop ride over to the coast in sunny 28degC

Final ride of the year. 51 degrees and foggy. Met up with a buddy for our Saturday coffee

I rode but took the RoadGlide out for a spin, met with a gentleman and his wife who just bought 2 new Gen3 Hayabusas so I had to hook them up with helmet hooks. Tomorrow is the Busas turn!

At least the windshield wipers come in handy though right?

That boat just has to have them....

 

[HayaWakened]

About 100 mi on the Gen2, all freeway, no rain, and not much traffic (weird when that happens on SoCal)

ROFL. I got leg warmers, hand warmers and cruise control with 800w of stereo but sadly no wipers.

Did a 1990's New Year ride with a friend today. What a time to be alive! The 1990's, not the 2020's.

Rode the first 160km (100 mi) today with the fairings fitted after some shake down runs on previous days for a pleasant beachside ride!

For a reliable daily, the RCC Stage 1 is good enough for me on the streets! Installing this turbo is the most fun thing I've done to this bike!
It's running rich for the standard turbo map and good for cooling, but dyno tuning in a couple of weeks will sort that out within safe temps.
