Title: Freezing/boiling northernite checking in!
Post by: Maduro Mistress on June 28, 2005, 01:24:03 PM
Hi all! New here, was searching for some mods and came across the site... My little zuke is 1 month old exactly today, and she's tearing around ever day and loving it...

My first bike ever I got her (04 GS500F) with 11 miles and she has about 1400 miles on her today 4 weeks later!!! (I think I like to ride :) )

Thanks for all the info I've read so far. I have a bunch of questions, but I'll keep reading for the meantime so you don't have to answer the same thing 50 times!

A vengeful bovine with a mean streak is now searching for Kerry's yellow GS eager to avenge its earlier injury and insult, and its got its Ninja wannabe kids with it ...  :lol:

Oh I guess I should have clarified. My helmet, jacket and gloves, etc. were all on order. I ordered my gear, picked up my bike and then got the whole ensemble together - I am a-o-k now! : )

My sis used to work at Jerry's (well, a few years back)... but I don't think she ever got bitten by the cigar bug.

I'm kind-of a freezin/boiling rider too; didn't ride much after turkey-day last year, and started daily again a couple weeks before easter this spring (with maybe 5 or 6 rides in-between).  An Aerostich suit looks pretty drab, but it makes spring and fall tolerable.  (summer... ugh! best to go riding at dawn)

Thanks for the warm welcome you guys! And no prob stephen - I totally understand! I didn't want to ride without my stuff, ya know, even though the Arai my shop lent me until my helmet came in was pretty sweet!!!

Thanks Rec! I love my 'dor. That was my obsession before I discovered the world of bikes, now my humidor is neglected and my bike gets cleaned every day :)

Great site you guys have here! I will compile my list of questions and post them. Thanks again for the welcome!
