Sad day-gz down for the winter

Hurriedly got the garage situated for the winter-the gz is against the wall. Just rode her last Tuesday but the cold weather is setting in-we had about an inch of snow last night-winter sucks

Re: Sad day-gz down for the winter

Winter does suck. But that doesn't mean we can't keep each other warm with tales of two-wheeled folly and plans for what we'll do to these bikes in the Spring, right?

Hunker down everyone... except your losers who live on the beach and like to share photos of Dolphins.

Yeah, us seasonal and recent non-riders can just have our fantasies of the mountain twisties and sunshine. Of course my fav fantasies have nothing to do with bikes.

Re: Sad day-gz down for the winter

I have been looking a CL for a new to me bike for next season. Starting to kick myself for not picking up a good deal when it was offered to me.

I suggest a FZ8 next, if you visit Western powersport they're closing down so you might get a good deal on a bike right now.

Re: Sad day-gz down for the winter

Cathy, I'm hoping to find a bike old enough to be insured as a collector bike. Insurance is really a joke for a collector compared to a newer bike. Also the older bikes can be maintained somewhat easier without special tools or a computer program. I really like the new foolproof bikes but I am not willing to pay that much for what is essentially a big toy.

Re: Sad day-gz down for the winter

People like DRZ since it's is under the 400cc insurance bracket, but I guess it is a little bit uncomfortable since it is a dual-sport. I don't really know what you like to ride though.
