  • Ready for spring!

    Been a long time since I've been on the forum, but it's getting close to spring here in Indiana, and I'm itching to get out and ride! I plan on getting the old girl out and ready to go this sunday.

    Come on warm weather!

    One thing that makes me a little sad about this pic is I no longer have my WRX, it's cool though, an Inferno Red HEMI Grand Cherokee has taken over the garage...

    Nice bike! I have one very similar to that......

    Question for you since your chin fairing is a different color and I have to repaint mine. Is that black or a really dark gunmetal gray?

      I re-sand and re-apply as needed, gets a little nicked up down there sometimes.

        Cool beans! I was going to paint mine black with gloss clear to match the rest of the bike. It has a large crack in it that I will repair, but I won't want to match the red metallic pearly paint it came with.

                    I'm tempted to get the 636 out tomorrow...warm but wet.

                            Reinstalled the battery and the bike fired up on the second push today after 3 months in the shed. I'll get the oil changed this week, and get 2012 kicked off with a nice Yoshi rip on the way to work.
                            By the way, anybody see a theme occurring here?
