    Just this winter acquired my acid yellow 2003 955i and have not let cold temperatures keep me inside (too much). Although, I have been using a new battery, a battery tender, and rubbing body heat on the cylinders to make for a quicker warm up each day. We had 60 degree weather yesterday and the ride felt like Bali! Happy to be here, and laughing that my son now prefers my "old man" sportbike. Have fun!

    Welcome buddy :). You have a lovely bike. Brings back some nice memories for me. I used to have the exact same year/model as yours but in black :) rsz_daytona_955i.jpg

    Bit different to the Daytona I had in the 70s
    500 cc twin with metallic green tank and chrome map rack.
    Traded my Honda 250 in for it when I passed my bike test, big mistake!
