Too bloody hot!!

I've been out in my car today, (mmmm air con). Seen tons of bikes out including a big ride out group of hundreds!

Too hot for me, black leather, and black lid!

30C is not for me!

So who went out then?
GT pack, Puig dark tint touring screen, Zumo 660, road Angel, Drift Ghost S HD cameras + remotes X 4, i phone 5s plus mount, Interphone 5 comms.

We went out at 11am but called it a day appx 12.30pm far too Hot to ride in, and every Knob head was also out in their cars. Incorrectly adjusted windscreen washers squirting every where except the screen, bebris thrown out of the windows and worst of all were 2 x cyclists riding side by side and a queue of traffic waiting to overtake them not qiving a Fcuk for the traffic behind even though they were Heckled a few times by the overtaking vehicles.
get a grip and deal with it

I went to Squires near Leeds this afternoon and it was rammed.  One guy there with leathers on had them round his ankles the entire time I was there giving everyone an insight into his underwear.  :mfr_lol:

O.C.

had a stonking ride out today, met my mate (Super Tenere) at his house in Greenisland and we rode to Newtownabbey,  Belfast,
Dundonald,  Newtownards, alongside Strangford Lough to Portaferry  then took the short ferry ride to Strangford  onwards to Downpatrick and Newcastle  (no, not upon Tyne)  returning through Clough, Ballynahinch  Hillsborough,  Lisburn, Belfast, Ballyclare, and home again. The weather was truly stunning as is the scenery and it was a fantastic ride out in 25 degrees c and about 100 or so miles

Brilliant, Brilliant Brilliant    :clap:   
BE KIND...

I was thinking of a night time ride but a BBQ and a few beers killed that idea   :smiley:

I'm glad I kept  the GSX1400 when I bought the GTR.

A very enjoyable ride out to the coast with no fairing in front of me :smiley:

I was there as well.  I had to wear full textiles and a yellow bib all day, leading the Yamaha demo fleet for 2 days.  I nearly died of heatstroke!

Ok, that's 86 degrees in real numbers..  You guys have got it so good.   :mfr_lol: Typical summer weather here is upper 80's to 100 or so.   And I still ride in it.....with an 08.   The Indian (air/oil cooled 1800cc +) is hotter than the GTR and I ride that as well.
