Guess I'm not riding for a while. We are finally getting hit tomorrow here in western NY. Expecting blizzard conditions, 20 in of snow with 40 mph winds. Actually closing the schools, which is rare here. Then on Friday back to 40+. Still hope, though. Just a little while longer

Where in western NY? The weather forecast for Binghamton is a mere 8 inches.

Go Borg. I expect a stunning report on your commute tomorrow.

I am in Rochester. Had 19" of snow on Wed into Thurs AM. Today (Friday) temp went to 55, and most of that snow melted today. As soon as the salt is gone from the roadways I will start riding

That's no joke cyborg! I'm only at about 90Km on mine right now. I can actually feel it running better as it begins to get broken in. A couple days ago, it was much harder to get up to 40 MPH or so. Today, riding into a 20MPH wind, I was hitting 40 on accident...speeding in town. Starting more easily, running more smoothly, moving faster...Good Stuff!

By the way, I went to go see a buddy of mine today. I thought that the max speed limit between here and there was 45, but I was wrong. There is about a 3 mile stretch of 55MPH in there. Again, I was driving into the wind. I tucked down as far as I could and let 'er rip and was easily able to operate normally in traffic at highway speeds. I pretty much had my chin on the gauge cluster, but I did take a quick peek once, and the speedo showed what I expected, about 60 MPH.

I really didn't want to run it that fast during break in but I kinda had to because I forgot about a higher speed limit on that stretch of road. It sure was fun though

You ain't seen nothing yet. It will slowly begin to become more solid in its performance as the miles pile on. Trust me, you'll think it's a different scooter by the time 5,000 miles rolls around. You too Borg.
