Also from just outside the T-dot. Hello! Cant wait for this snow to stop...

Hi suprphreak!
I have ridden with you a long time ago. I think you had a 636 back then.
up the 507 with Chiller(?)
Where did you purchase your HS?
Cheers

Hey - great to see another Canuck here

Congrats on the purchase [I'm guessing from GT Bikes in Whitby?] you will love this bike! You're in the same position I was last year: I'd bought the bike well in advance of spring - November in fact - and then had to wait very patiently for the good weather to arrive. On that note, let's hope this spring arrives earlier than last year. Yeeeesh, "spring" 2013 didn't start until May.

Cheers!
Lou in Ottawa.

Welcome. If it's of any consolation, haven't ridden in three days, lots of rain. Probably do a short ride this weekend, if time permits....house chores. I'm loving this bike, it's all I wanted to replace my 2001 Triumph Sprint ST

I feel I have a connection w/ the Canadian posse, studied in Windsor, Ont during the early eighties. Yep I'm getting old, but having tons of fun.

Peace

Hey cool! Sorry my memory for names sucks! And yes, would have been with Chiller!

For the HS after the 636/zx14 and VFR! Just last fall, from GP Bikes!

I bought mine at RIDE Motorcycles.
Very happy with the staff there.
How are the heated grips working? I cant justify paying for Ducati heated grips.
I have OXFORDS on the FZ (sport version=thinner) are they as thin as Ducati grips?

I'm not sure i can tell the diff. Texture wise the "adventure" model oxfords would feel the same as the Duc grips, but whatever your preference.

Welcome, looks like the Canadians are building quite a group here.
