That would be the chop.... and no not really... its only 9' long.

Also, for the nay sayers... its not about the cold. Here in michigan its all about the salt. Sat & Sun... the roads are totally covered with salt... all white. I have THOUSANDS in chrome alone... the bike goes away after the salt gets thrown and doesn't come back out till after a few good rains to rinse them off in the spring. PERIOD!

I'm just not to doing it in November... usually Dec and have had it as late as January before.

well then get yourself a damn bike. I've got an 07 CBR1000RR sitting in my shop and an 03 Daytona 955i. The CBR is bad ass and no unreasonable offer will not be heard and I'm not sure about the Daytona but its in real nice shape.

that's so how many of you actually do that?

I'll be suprised if I put on less than 15k next year from April to Nov.

Yeah, I put over 12k on my VTX within the first 11 mo of riding it.

And just FYI, my VTX is in storage for the winter until further notice and my RC has been undercovers since mid-August (fucking moving in the middle of riding great riding weather, both there and here) so I definitely know your pain.

You'll ride 200 miles and might turn twice. (Once to get on the interstate and once to get off going home. )

We're not all that impressed.
