Some of you guys may recall, I bought a new 04 SB385 from Barry which I got in January. The weather is starting to warm up and the snow is virtually gone. I've had it out a few times already and have about 400 miles on it now. Man, what a bike! I've owned a few hot bikes and cars in the past but nothing like this. I've still got a few minor bugs to deal with but I'll get those when I do the big 500 mile service. I'm going to invent something this summer(not sure what yet) to help the engine temp stay up on the cold days. As you can see from my avatar I have some cardboard in front of the rad to block the wind and it works somewhat, but in this weather I can only get it up to about 155 degrees on the highway. Around town is no problem. As far as keeping me warm, I have an electric vest and one of Barry's batwing fairings. Between those 2 things it's pretty good. We don't get a lot of snow up here and believe it or not we can ride about 9 or 10 months a year.
I sure like this forum. As a rookie B.H. owner, I've learned a lot from you guys and know where I can go when I have a problem. Excellent job Lamont and thanks for putting up my avatar!
Looking forward to the east coast and Sturgis and of course meeting a few of you guys.
