It was a seasonably warm 72 degrees today! I know that's not a big deal for some of the folks down south or in Cali, but that's nice weather for November in Maryland. I replaced the starter on T2, because it was getting weak, and then took a ride. The last ride I took was last night at 40 degrees wearing long johns and my riding jacket with the liner in and winter riding gloves. It was definitely nice to get out without bundling up for a change. It was pretty nice to be on the Triton instead of the 35MPH Sunl too. ;D Hopefully some of you also had good riding weather this weekend.

Oh yes, It's the same temp here in Wisconsin. I've already been out for 2 rides today alone, and a nice long one with my dad yesterday. It's supposed to stay warm like this into tomorrow at least. My scoot is running really rich because I tuned on a 35 degree day

I jetted up a bit a when I first started riding on cold nights, but it's been doing alright in the warmer air.

I still like the way it looks and "feels" (it's very open and everything is visible, feels like riding a bicycle really fast lol) with no plastics, but when it's cold my legs really miss that front plastic.

Great pics Brent. Looks like we got some more rain headed my way. I haven't been riding much lately since my headlight was out. But I fixed it today and tried it out tonight. It worked ok. Been itching to take a long ride and see the leaves. It was beautiful down here all last week.

Maybe the weather will stay nice so you can get a good daytime ride in. Leaves don't look that great via headlights.

After a week of rain, cold temps, and wind... another 70 degree November Sunday! Notice the black rear wheel. I had to swap on the wheel/tire from T1 because I got yet another nail in my rear tire.

Awesome that you got another nice weekend. It was beautiful outside yesterday, but today it's very cold. Suck that you got another nail in your tire though. Hopefully you can plug it up good. if not, I got a ton of spares if you need one for cheap.

I might get this one patched from the inside. Got any Michelin Pilot Sports or Boppers as spares?
I'm thinking about switching both the front and rear over to Boppers. I'm much less likely to be in rain or wet roads when it's cold out and I think it's worth sacrificing a little wet weather grip for a little more dry weather grip. Most of my riding is on dry roads and I don't push it in the rain anyway.

This is what I have for spares: img30.imageshack.us/img30/9836/lg1001086.jpg I have 3 front tires, and 4 rear tires. front tires are 120/70-12 and rears are 130/70-12. I think they're all KENDA brand?

Thanks for the pics, but since swapping up to Michelin tires I have no desire to go back to Kendas.
