Nice machine.

According to my Corvette Racing Yellow Z06/Z07, yellow is the fastest color.

It must be satisfying to get a bike like this functioning safely again.

Quite a story.

One would think he would have heard the bike telling him "Do not buy me."

My truck has that digital readout of all 4 tires too, and one can watch the pressures increase as they get hot.

This, coupled with temperature readings, is very interesting - particularly when the starting pressure on the front and rear tires are different.  E.g., lower pressure tires heat up quicker.

Good post. 

I bought my good gauges years ago when I was actively tracking/instructing cars. I have not given them any further thought other than to occasionally check to make sure they read the same pressure.

On a related note, I am impressed with how accurate my cars' TPMS pressure read outs are.

He says sales are up more than 20%. 
What bikes are selling? 

And what are the younger riders buying?

New tires and cold is not a good combination. One would think the reminder would be enough.

Satisfying end result, but for the loss of the card.

I always say good-bye to each season as it leaves and greet the new. 

It seems wise.

Face book has done more to slow this sight down than anything else. I for one will be gone if face book takes over, not interested in peoples day to day goings on.

I share your disinterest in social media, but I found you can easily monitor the MN-MSTA Facebook page without seeing anything else if this is your preference. 

All you need is to sign up for Facebook and then ask for an invitation to join the MN-MSTA group.  Sign up for the group.  Then ignore any friend requests you may receive.
