Iphone 5

last week I rode in 35* weather....

When I was yer age, that was nothin.
Wait till you get older. You just don't take the cold the same.
Want to call me a Liar. Go to Florida.
See where all the folks are.
go to south Texas and see where the folks are from in the winter.

I agree, don't have heated gear, but with jacket / liner, good gloves and full face helmet, good down to 40*. Usually start feeling fingers getting cold once in 30s, nothing else really gets cold. At 35* heated gloves would feel really good.

Had everybody to bust my chops when I talked about gettin heated grips.
Well the new bike has heated grips. And they are fine
My windshield and hard lowers rocks when its cold outside.
When it goes to the 40's close the vents.

Its time to start lookin for this and git a ful set, Its great.

Don't care what anyone thinks, at 35*, heated grips would ROCK!

My OL will lean forward and want to put her hands on the grips...
And say I wished I had a set. Yea Baby.........

yeah they would, but I just don't want them...

Johnny some of us are older and a little wiser than you. When we get cold we can use a little heat to make life a liittle more comfortable for us
You are young and yer blood is still pumpin.

I have me Gerbing gloves and jacket. I just have to crank up the nuclear reactor and lug them in and I'm set for well below freezing. There are time though I wish I had a fairing to keep the wind off my hands and face.

From what I hear Heated grips really work good

All I can say is till you ride behind a fairing with a full windshield and have heated grips you don't know what its like to ride in the winter.
Let a buddy ride my Electra Glide Standard a couple years ago. He had come in off the boat from where he was gone for a month.

He has a softail Deuce. It was winter and I gave him a jacket.
He came back and said, I can't believe the difference. The fairing and windshield knocks off so much wind you don't get no where as cold.
and I was wondering when you went into the curves why I had such a hard time keeping up with you.
I was scared with the big bike going into the curves and I'm 6'6"
It was like the bike drove itself threw the curves and took them easier that what they do on my deuce.
Never imagined it was such a nice ride on a Electra Glide.
I'm gonna have to get one of these. My girlfriend who was standing there will like it much better.
She said yes I would.
End of story.

All I can say is go ride for a Day when its winter on yer bike.
On another day, go to the dealership and rent like a Ultra limited. It will have heated grips
Go ride it for a day. Then come back and tell me the difference.

Got a buddy in Lousiana. He rode a Heritage softail with a windshield.
He went and rented a Electra Glide Ultra limited. He went back to the dealer and asked about lowering it like a street Glide.
He said he didn't like the strong ride on the street glide and the EG has a lot better setup.
They lowered a Electra Glide Ultra Limited for him so he could stand flat footed better on it.
And he made his deal and drove off on it.
I've ridden street Glide's, I would have to put a taller windshield, heated grips, tourpack and hard vented lowers on it and put some taller rear view mirrows.
So with all that I might as well have the electra glide.
I'm 5'10" so the newer frame bikes, don't need to be lowered.
YOu just need to ride them to get used to the weight and how to handle a bigger bike if you haven't ridden on.
But if you spend any amount of time on one.
You can't go back to a young mans bike.
A Electra Glide is a Cadillac, you may not take off as fast, you may not stop as fast. But the comfort they give you with the fairing and all gives riding what you need.
Don't ask me how I know......:rant:

Rented a Limited past Feb for Bike Week in Daytona with Charlie46. (Remember when you all came down on me cause I said my legs were cramped with stock seat?) I loved thd limited. But my wallet is too empty to git one

I had to get out and bust my chops for over a year. Workin all the time and trade my bike in and pay some money down too. To be able to get one.
And I mean I didn't do anything or buy anything during over a year too.

It hurt all that time.
But I have to say, since I got it broke in, it has to be the best all around running bike I've ever owned with the 103 motor in it.

When I was in College statinon yesterday I had to wait like 4 hrs to git my bike in line to get a back tire on it.
They was having some big hamburgers, I ate two.
While we was there the OL was playing on her Iphone 4S.
I remembered I was where they had the LTE network. I handed the OL my phone 5
I keep hearing that everybody with a 4S say, I was told if you have a 4S you don't need a iphone 5

The OL got on a couple different places and loaded some pages up.
I went outside and came back in about 20 minutes later. She gave me my Iphone 5 back
She said if you are using a Iphone 4S like her you sit there and wait for a page to load.
With the Iphone 5 on the LTE network there is no waiting. Its faster than I could believe.
I played with it. Yep, I have DSL at home with 2.5 download and 512 upload.
The Iphone 5 on the LTE network is faster than the DSL I have

So the new super duper Iphone 5 has turned most of Portland into a park, and the Hoover Dam into a roller coaster ride! Seems the map ...
