Gettin that Spring Fever

**MTVolusia** · 02-26-2008 06:29 PM

I had the local Harley shop put in my Andrews 26 G cams and now I have Spring Fever. I can't wait to put some miles on my UC. It has a deeper sound and feels a lot more torquee in the 2000 rpm range. I,m hoping my gas mileage either improves or stays the same. Anyone else getting that spring fever? Sure has been a long winter.

Same here, I ride year round, but I can't wait to do it without dressing like and eskimo, and the pot holes are terrible right now. I did not ride nearly as much this winter as last!

I ride year round in Texas, but like others here...I'm tired of having to layer up on clothes.

I leave in the a.m. and it's 30F...the afternoon is 77F...and the evening is 50F.

The drastic diff in temps over the course of one day is KILLING me already!!

I wish I could ride now....there's so much salt and sand on the road here that it isn't safe to walk fast nevermind ride a bike.

I've not been able to ride since October. The price of living in Alaska. Thought I might get out today as the main roads were clear and the side roads were fair. Got 7 inches of snow last night. Bummer.

I was having a fit of Spring Fever. Friday, I decided to leave for the mountains. It was beautiful. There was a ton of bikes up there. Of course I was in the minority on my Gixxer, but that was ok. Everyone was friendly and there just to have a good time and enjoy the nice weather. I need to download a pic of a Harley with the hottest paint job I have seen in a while.

I watch YouTube clips, it somewhat helps. For example:

YouTube - Nomad 1600 parking lot practice

then this

YouTube - Parking lot practice 2

and

YouTube - Zions KawaNOW ride part 2

and this

YouTube - 2001 drifter vid

etc. etc. etc.
