Snow Tires For My Ultra
« on: December 15, 2007, 04:40:38 PM »
We are expecting a foot and a half of snow this evening... I think up state NY is going to get the same.

Had to put away the bike for the season this afternoon...

This sucks!

Now that really sucks!

Went to the Harley shop to buy some today, then found out I have everything a SERG gets.  ;D

Well except a cover and I'm still looking for two. Parts guy said 00 and 01 were same parts #.

But there's still plenty of chrome that can go on the Classics.

I'm with you there Murph.  Woke up today and was a little disappointed in the outcome of the storm so far.  I may not need to fire up the snow blower until evening time.  I've got lots of good beer, an undecorated tree, a warm fireplace, beef stew for dinner and LOTS of GREAT football to watch today.......

Some good things are just worth waiting for....  I'll see the Jester in the spring..... and it'll be like we were never apart

We have had the foot and a half of snow... and it's still comming down!

Can't see across the street.

We are supposed to be flying out of Buffalo in the morning and heading down to FLA... hope this storm doesn't screw up our trip!

I live near the Buffalo airport.  You'll get out fine today.  We only got about a foot and the roads are clear.  The biggest log jam will be at one of the bridges...  Have fun on your trip..

Storm definitely not as bad as expected - however I am already sick of snow blowing!!! We were lucky to have a late start last year, no snow til January. This pre-planning for next year's rides will help make things a little easier though.

Been there done that :bananarock:

I got the mini-Honda, the HS520A.  I said to the wife on the way to get it, "Can't believe I'm buying a Honda.  I wish Harley made snowblowers."  Then I used it yesterday on the 8 inches we got the night before.  Holy crap that thing works GREAT!  Did my drive and 2 of the neighbors' in about 2 hours.  They actually call it a "snowthrower" and now I know why! :2vrolijk_21:  What a leap in technology from the last snowblower I used . . . . . my dad'd 25-year old Toro.

Anyway, if it was a Harley, I'd probably have a leaking head gasket by now, so it's probably a good thing they don't make snowblowers. :-\ :P
