I did the same with the Daytona, took her out onto the decking, gave her a wipe down, looked at the sky and put her away again with a fresh cover over her. |

Re: looks like its getting to that time of year

, horses for courses takes all types I suppose.Cheers Mark.

The enduro is road registered and taxed etc but green laning is a different sort of fun

Re: looks like its getting to that time of year
I'll keep going out until its too cold for me. Though with heated gloves I'm hoping that I can go out whenever the weather is good. Dad went out as long as it was dry last year, even when it was only 1 or 2˚c, but he doesn't seem to feel the cold

Re: looks like its getting to that time of year
Well there's only one way to gain experiance mate.
The superduke stays out until the smell of those nasty people putting down salt, then liberal amounts of ACF50 and tucked up for a while, from there it's the S4 and when it gets icy the CCM comes out to play as it's wicked on ice....  Cheers Mark.
