Welcome from another Ontarian. I also have two bikes... I use one of them to ride all winter. It's been keeping me (relatively) sane since 2005:

Welcome, I am suffering from the same thing, but for a different reason.

I love the Yamaha V-Max, it is one of my all time favorite motorcycles, I have all ways wanted one and hope to get one in a couple years.

Have fun riding once the snow melts.

Hi and :welcome:

I too have had my bike parked for a few months (October) and since it seems like Spring is about to hit it won't be long before I'm back out there on it. :mrgreen:

I haven't decided if I will begin commuting on it though as my commute is less than 10 mins!
