john,

dump that cruiser for the sportbike you want, and you will be able to outrun any unfriendly weather that presents itself!

ive been out on the VFR the past 3 days. approx 90degF here in atlanta. bike runs "warm", but my new homemade fan override circuit keeps things in check pretty well.

riding up to see the early practice rounds of atlanta "Gran Prix" running this weekend at Road Atlanta.
