Finally getting a chance to ride!

For the first time in over a month, it is nice enough to ride. Now I just need to convince my GS that its time to go. I keep it in my parents garage when I'm not riding it and unfortunately there is not an outlet close to the remote corner where I keep it so I cant keep a battery tender on it without running extension cords all over the place... So the the battery is dead but I have it hooked to the charger and am just waiting for that... but the chain is a little loose so I might tighten clean and lube that before I go for a ride. I would love to clean the entire bike, but I live on a dirt road so it would just get filthy the second I left... Some day when I finish college and move away to somewhere without dirt roads I will be able to keep my vehicles clean for a whole day.  :icon_mrgreen:

Still snowing here for me, probably wont be march till ill be able to ride. Its a bummer cuz I just got it rejetted and cleaned the carbs about two weeks ago. It sounds better then it did before the rejet and I cant wait to see how she rides. Ride safe!
Rub some dirt in it, you'll be fine!

I was in a similar position to yours about this time last year, jetted my GS in an unheated garage... SUCKED but it was worth it! granted after I got it running right I rode it with snow on the ground  :cookoo:

Just got back from a short ride and man it is unusually nice out today. 62 degrees... Sure beats the 20 degree weather we have been having. :D
