Hi!

Took the bike out for a premiere spring ride today!

There was a faint smell of burnt rubber coming from the bike. Is this normal
after a winter break? The bike was in perfect condition other than that!
It started up on the first try and ran smoothly all throughout the ride!

Yo, Spoonman!
I got the bike out yesterday too, and it smells just like yours. Nothing to worry about, it's just the winter gunk being warmed up and disappearing. I kinda like the smell.....

I had to clean the plugs before it fired though....

11 grader celsius i Trondheim i dag....Har akkurat kommet inn etter en times finkjøring...

You'd smell too if you sat around lonely all winter :-D

Seriously, glad to see that you guys are getting a bit of Spring over there. No luck here yet. Temps are running about 15 degrees F below average. Rain today and most of next week. I'm losing my patience.

Enjoy it while you can, Spoon and Weed.

Monte :-D

When you rev the snot out of it and dump the clutch it's supposed to smell like that!

Härliga tider Monsieur T-Weed!!!

Well, took the bike out today again for a longer ride....and I think the smell is disappearing...so it's probably like you say.

Spring is here!! Let's sing and rejoice!!!!

Be safe!
