    That time of year again.

    Have already had some snow so the bike is just sitting plugged in to the charger. Home some of you guys down south are getting out for a ride.

    Too much rain around here lately. Couple more weeks and it should start to get into nice riding weather.

    Rain every other day here as well. It takes it a little longer to warm up here in these North Ga. mountains.

    78 degrees here today so got in a nice little ride. It has been a really mild winter down here. Will pay for it this summer I am sure.

    In the mid 40's and drizzling rain today in NW Louisiana. I did it 45 years ago but now I'm too old to be riding in this weather.

    We pretty much ride weekly. Been slick but keeps things interesting. I swap between a new beta 200 and yz 250fx
    Cant bring myself to sell the yz. Rode it Sunday, I love that bike. Blessed to have 2 awesome rides. I can spread out the hours and the different characteristics are refreshing. They both work so good!

    Almost bought another Harley this weekend but bought a 2023 Kawasaki Z900 SE instead.

    Missed sport bike riding more than I realized. Got 100 miles in on Sunday.

    Looking at a Kawasaki Z900RS. Not quite the air cooled Z from the 70's but pretty sweet.

    I sold my 2019 Beta 200 last year and bought the WR250F. I’m thinking my next bike will be a YZ250FX. Seems like a great do it all bike?

    I love that retro look, but I wanted a more aggressive riding position.

    Yes it is a nice ride.. I had a crisp 09 wr prior to the fx. Buddy has it now and rides it regularly.. I do like the rear slanted engine revisions on the fx better. Definitely heavier than the beta but performs very well.

    Looks great ! Just need to get rid of that suitcased size muffler and buy a good slip on.
