Well it has been in the 50's and 60's Fahrenheit for the past few days which is amazing for Wisconsin in the late winter/early spring. So me and some buddies have been taking major advantage of it.

Your mates would be jealous. Looks like you've got the newest bike in all of Wisconsin. 8)
What's the car in the background of the first shot? Looks pretty evil in the pic. :twisted:

Enjoy the good weather and the bike mate!! :D

Yeah, this weather's been great! But weekend looks crappy.

How are the alphabet roads up there looking? Winter's sand & other debris been hosed off by rain yet?
I haven't been up there yet, but will be soon!

Rode to Starved Rock SP area yesterday .... Had to test new givi touring windscreen ... 180 m, blue sky, & mild temp. Lovely! Oh yeah, I forgot, windscreen did fine. :roll:

Yes our alphabet roads are pretty clean from last weeks rain. I hope the crap weather just blows over and we can have sunshine and mild temps again soon!

Glad to hear the new windscreen is holding up. I am due for a new one soon. I was thinking tinted or chrome blue.

I've put about 300 miles on in the last week and I am heading out the door momentarily to put on a few hours of riding with my buddy.
