    This winter so far has been unpleasant with frigid temperatures and consistent snow. So when the forecast showed sunny, clear sky 58 degree weather I was more than ecstatic to take the bike out. I put an easy couple hundred miles on her throughout the course of a couple of hours which was awesome. I just couldn't get enough of the scream these inline fours make in the higher rpms (eargasm) so she got a thorough workout in the upper revs. Saw plenty of other bikers out and even got to have a little fun with a sick Corvette Stingray so all in all it was a very enjoyable day.

    Looks darn near spring-like.

    Nice looking 550, that Yosh muffler must make it sound real nice :)

    We had a beautiful weekend but I did home work and yard work. I'm glad you got out.

    Jealous. we are in the middle of a winter storm here with broken trees all around the place. Just got in from cutting away my older neighbors trees that had him pinned in.
    Nice looking ride. Doing a full rebuild right now and that blue has me thinking. Are those Euro bars from Bikemaster or someone else? The stock bullhorns are definitely done. Is your seat slid into the latch up front? Looks high.

    Thanks for the compliments fellas. I'm not sure where the Euro bars are from as they were on the bike when I purchased it but they do resemble the BikeMaster ones. Yep, the seat is slid in to the notch all the way.

    You had 58?! Cleveland was still low 40s. So close, yet so far. Hey, is that Caesar's Creek by any chance? Looks familiar.

    Yeah we had a high of 58 which was awesome. Depressing thing is the forecast for the rest of the week isn't supposed to go above freezing :cry: Yep that's a semi frozen Caesar's Creek.
