The ride into work yesterday was fine, but I didnt anticipate a 16 hour shift. We re-fused and changed out transformers all night and up until 7:30 this morning. Went to start the bike and it would barely turn over...not fast enough to get the fuel injection going. 1 degree temp plus windchill probably jelled the oil so thick it would not let the starter spin the motor fast enough. It has a fresh hot battery and has always been on the Tender...powerpack booster and a truck with jumper cables had no effect. I'll have to push it into the building this evening to warm it up I suppose. I know the limit of the bike now anyway.
