Gary,
First off, I think you're nuts to ride when it's that cold; I admire
that about you.

Second, my '71 Ambo doesn't run well below about 45 F. I assumed it
wasn't able to warm up properly and that was just natures way of telling
me to take the truck. Do you make any adjustments for 'cool' weather
riding?

WTF--- Tooo COLD in North GEORGIA ? Sheeeeit , come on up to Meechagin
. I've been riding to work most every day . Wonderful weather, there was

almost no ice yesterday morning . A couple weeks ago it was a balmy 20
degrees on the F scale ! No special boutique biker pants or heated grips

required just a good jacket and gloves .Those Guzzi cylinders keep
enough cold off the legs so just my work pants are sufficient .
Come on son ,get one of the Guzzi Granraid jackets, layer on some
clothes and make that Guzzi proud ! It's a real blast .The Harley posers

can't even look you in the eye when you walk into the shop totung your
jacket and helmet after they rolled in with their Ford F-150 and the
only hint of a motorcycle (?) was the Harley Doesnotrun Sticker
emblazoned across the 2 acre back window of the slug truck .


Bring back the Berliners ! REAL motorcycle people
