ViperX... Isn't it pretty mild near Seattle where you are? A buddy of mine who just moved from that area said it was real mild most of the time. The reason I ask is that here in Wisconsin, although mostly cold, we do have some pretty humid months too. I wonder if the humidity may have something to do with it. Not that I really have a choice in the matter now, I plunked down the money and will have to deal with it either way. Oh well, I know it will LOOK cool! I told the Wet Okole folks they had Eric Konarske to thank for the sale since it was seeing the photos of his X with them in it that sold me.
Hey. Viper, how big is Mercer Island? Have you ever seen Lil_XTerra's whacked out ride? He lives there too.
SnarlWell, since the beginning of June, we've only had 2-3 days of rain. I'm just 5 minutes from Seattle, so Its pretty close to sea level here. We've had weeks at a time in the 90's, and I took it for several road trips up north, and south to Sun River, where it was 97. No trouble yet. I haven't tried them in the cold yet, but will certainly do so this year.
And yes, I have seen Lil_X several times. His exhaust gives him away. It looked cool, till I heard it. It just sounded like someone farting. But to each his own. Mercer Island is like 26K people, (all old rich and snobish) and there are more than 25 X's . Mine was number 3 though. And none are used for more than towing jet skis or showing off at our QFC.
Lil_X came out to see my X and my new lights while I was playing basketball the other day. His friends like mine considerably more, and I still have a lot of work to do.
