I have seen a lot of complains in the forum from US and EU riders about the bad weather season, cold, snow ect ect.. I tell you: thats the perfect season to get the bike in the garage, take it apart and do some modifications knowing thats not a waste of time as there is no way to ride. The best I get is a rainy season but still no real motivation to get the bike out for a view weeks/month. Every day the bike is grounded I feel sad. Lucky guys, dont !!!
