Rub it in why don't you.... Well up north we may get cold and snow but we don't have hurricanes, tropical storms, etc - Ill take a blizzard anyday over one of those.

I secretly long to live in a state where i can ride just about every day but thats not practical right now

Don't worry you can laugh at me in the summer when it's 98 degrees and raining every afternoon. And then yes there are the hurricanes we had 3 in a 12 month span. Oh but you can keep your blizzards though that's why I moved from Conn. I HATE COLD WEATHER!!

Good price!

All of you guys have it bad compared to SoCal. We have great weather year-round, and most of the traffic can be avoided.

But just wait til the big one hits...

But then you'll be living in the California Islands. I could buy land in Arizona and have beach front property.

LoL

People always think I'm a Pac Islander...after the Big One I can say it's true!

Is this what the jacket looks like?

Pretty snazzy jacket there. I may just have to buy another jacket with the tax refund.

M1s are good tires. Cheap, but they don't last long. Any type of spirited riding will show you the limits. Any trackday will chew them up in one day. But they heat up fast and provide good grip up to 8/10s or 9/10s pace.
