First ride of 2008, March 25th, 1 degree. Odometer:26567-26587
This afternoon at 11:30, I couldn't resist any more. I had to take my bike out. I have to admit I was pretty excited, when I remove the cover from my bike, I thought to my self-this is what I was waiting for the whole winter. I was so excited.
So I pushed my motorcycle out, it was heavier than i thought but I was able to put it on the street. So this is it. I can start the bike... I was a bit worried since I never started my bike this winter. Result... The motorcycle was too cold. The engine revved but no sparks. Everything must have ceased up. After 5-6 tries I gave up. What I did what I left the bike in the sun to warm up. In the meantime, I had drained my battery, yes I did, so I was looking for an extension. Obviously, I could not find an extension long enough to reach. Anyways long story short. I tried to start it one more time even though the battery was dead.And this time it worked. The warmth of the sun did its job.
p>Wow my Harley was running... The engine was in excellent condition. The sound it gave out was nice and clear.... It was a Harley!!!! I left it running for about 15-20 minutes just to let it catch its breath. I was looking for any leaks or cracks and all seemed to be in good condition.Now was the time to take my first ride. I was so excited, like a kid in a candy store, I wanted to go for a spin. I was a bit nervous since it has been a while I haven't gone on my bike. Anyways nerves a side I went out. Oh man it was awesome.
