Greetings from Ontario.
It's starting to snow here
This looks like a cool forum hope to meet some cool peoples here!
Bought a fireblade this spring. Had a 79 Rd400 Daytona Special for 14 years before that. Had a lot of fun riding this year. Can't wait for spring!!

It's actually some yellow flame decals which looked a little better when new. The downgrading of the photograph didn't help either.
Phobiaphobe I'm glad to hear you have 15degree weather cause it'll likely make it's way here. After that you'll likely need the thermals!

thanks, I think the tires handle pretty good. they're seem to be a pretty soft compound. I can 't really compare though I haven't had any different ones on yet. They were new when I bought the bike in April. the rears toast now and I didn't do that many burnouts!
Gotta put some tires on this winter.

Cheers to all you fellow Canucks. New here myself from PEI. The season is now over but it doesn't matter as all the riding buddies have left for Alberta. No snow yet.
