"Not sure if my 108cc scooter classifies me as a 'biker', but I'll probably be driving it through the winter so long as the snow doesn't lie. " I'm biased but personally I think scooter riders who ride in all weathers are much more bikers than those who only ride gea_ed bikes for a handful of warm dry days in the height of summer. Assuming all goes well I will be riding my 565cc maxi scooter all winter. | |||

"No - you're still scooter riders. Not every tucks their pride and joy away for winter. The 14 is used constant, the CRF when the snow is down as its unbreakable. The 10 however is an evil bitch that would love to hurt me so she gets a little fettling ![]() So where do you draw the line then? What about vehicles like the Honda Integra which is between a scooter and a manual bike? And how about the bikes in a more traditional shape but running auto CVT transmission? And finally what about cruisers that have the same riding style as scooters? | |||

"Not had one for 10 yrs now, but had 5 at one time, most of them in various stages of strip down & rebuild. Wish I still had ma Beckett Tuned RD400 though, it was quicker round the IOM than ma Z750 ![]() ![]() I had a becket tuned rd400 and then a Beckett tuned rd350lc back in the Day. Terry Beckett is still going but he doesn't do the tuning anymore he farms it out. And he is very expensive just trading on his name Just got my barrels back for my present 350lc and 350 ypvs from being tuned. Not by terry Beckett I hasten to add | |||

"thinking of buying a harley 883 and doing it up over the winter to go with the fireblade and fz1 lol" Rented an 883 in Florida a few years back, slashcuts, ape hangers, and a peanut tank... (There you go cagers, work that out ! ) Refuelled, every 80 miles but needed to take headache tablets every time cos the noise was hell lol. Indicators and mirrors would unwind in front of my eyes if I ride too quick. As for my 3 babies, 2 will be winterised, the one with the heated grips will pop out occasionally. Winterising being batteries float charged, fuel topped off and preservative added, then run with taps off until motor stops. Then hibernate ![]() | |||

"I only do the easy bits on mine these days, and am getting lazy in my old age. I managed to upgrade the front end with Racetech Emulators and 4-pot Tokicos off a Gixer, which did make it a lot better... I just need to get off my bum and finally stick that Ohlins on the back, but can't be bothe_ed with all the bits and bobs that I need to take off to do it - I need someone to spank me until I give in and do the job! A woman's work is never done.... ![]() But... Wouldn't you forget about doing the bike if someone was spanking you ? ![]() | |||

" I need someone to spank me until I give in and do the job! ![]() ![]() Damn - why is it that whenever I think I've got my life sussed out, somebody sees right through me!!! Hmmm - which is better - riding my bike, or getting spanked..? ... riding my bike or getting spanked...??? Questions... questions.... life can be so complicated sometimes... ![]() | |||

"RD250c needs to be in a lot less bits than it currently is and CBR600 f1 well, that needs a bit of tlc too- just don't get the time any more....... and mrs won't let me do it in the kitchen anymore ![]() Your Mrs is quite right about the kitchen... NOT the place to work on the bike!! Living room much more sensible,, have the TV to watch, and much more comfy to drink the tea she will keep you supplied with... | |||

"Nope - used as a race bike - service every 9hrs. With the SS valves and used on the road it's no different to the Enduro (X) version they do. It's the 8lt tank that's the issue!" .haha I couldn't remember the model Honda had that's got a piston life of 15 hours lol | |||

" riding your machine through the winter is the ONLY thing that qualifies you as being a biker ..... if you ain't riding it in the winter then you ain't a biker, instead you are merely a motorcyclist. ![]() | |||
