Does your Burgman have a Hayabusa decal on the rear end?
Hayabusa or Halfabusa? That was the 650's nickname at one point, same-ish length and weight with half the displacement (and 1/3 the hp, roughly). It's just "Lardy" now. The low PTW ratio and longer wheelbase does keep it stable in lousy conditions though.

Does anyone ride in the cold weather/winter with the TKC80's? I'm curious as to whether they would be better than my stock Pirelli Scorpion's.
I need clutch work done. Right now its hard to drive the GS with the way the clutch is. Even harder with cold hands.
Are you still wearing plain leather?

Brine trucks out in Waterloo...
Done for the season.

+1 the salt trucks define end of season, not the weather. Away she goes, always a sad day
Had to return my nice insulated leather gloves halfway through of the season due to ripping and am waiting to the motorcycle show to pick up some new ones.
My solution this year has been a pare of dollar store wool gloves under some old leathers. Been working surprisingly well at keeping the chill down on my hands but its getting way to cold on the old GS.
Not to mention that i like my little GS as a casual bike. Pair of jeans a jacket, gloves is all I like to ride in. Having to have layers and feeling like i'm wearing a snow suit is a bit of pain in the *** on this bike.
Going to be picking some of these for me and the wife next season.

lol...I wasn't making a joke. I was asking because this past Friday I saw a silver Burgman 650 with that decal in the cold/rain on the 401 taking the 403/QEW westbound overpass, exited Hurontario I think and Mac Doc's location is Mississauga...
I thought it'd have to be him. Rider was hauling it...outpacing the cars, being on a scooter with a huge windshield he had good wind and rain coverage.
I'll be riding the 50 or so km from 403/Dundas to 401/404, it should be clear and decent, lets see who else is out today...
Mine is white - no stickers but my 2005 was grey and that might have been it as the rider is all weather and all year if he can.
