First ride of the year!
« on: March 07, 2010, 06:22:23 pm »
First 2010 ride on the bike! I can't wait for more action. So sick of the cold and what a nice break... My Birthday is coming up Day after St patty's and we have a huge ride planned so hoping for nice weather but I have my doubts. I'm sure you other New Englanders can appreciate this fine weekend!

06 Kawasaki Ninja 500 R with a K&N Jets Vance and Hines pipe jetted and sprocketed. Nothing special lol. Bought it brand new and have 4,000 and change on it.

 Just watch out for all of the salt and the sand I've been spreading all winter if you come to Mass. Hopefully you will get a quick rainstorm in the next few days to clean the roads for your before your birthday.

I was out on the 8th as well.  Felt good to get a ride in.  Haven't rode since Labor day last year.  Here's a couple pics of the blade...

Couldn't wait to fire mine up, so I dropped in the battery and... nothing.  >:( Won't hold a charge. What's the life expectancy of these batteries? I got four years on it.

What kinda battery is it? Don't use an autozone battery I can tell you that right now. I blew 3 of them up in a row and said screw it. I spent the extra $ on a Harley battery and it's mint.
