Poor thing is under my car cover sitting impatiently in my garage as I drive my 05 Suzuki SVS650S, I did connect it to a trickle battery charger though,

I know how you guys feel. I have my baby parked in the garage dirty because I'm using my beater for the summer heat. Haven't drove her almost all summer, but start her up every now and then.

I don't know how you can go that long. I have a company car and I still take the Z out and drive around about every night, .

WTF?

I know of using beaters in the winter......but using a beater because of summer heat?????

You ARE in Sand Diego though, so it may be a different story, but still.

I drive my z every two days but only around the block to get beer or pick up the dry cleaning. I try and find reasons. Driving my beater saturn all day for work stinks....this winter is really gonna suck.

I drive mine every chance I get. It just seems that it is always away for something though like Canada haha. I already know that I am not going to own this for very long, so I figure that I enjoy it and pass the mileage on to the buyer

Because I have 2 other vehicles and the one I am currently driving (Suzuki 650S) is new and I am new to the M/C world + I get over 45 MPG!

Z is old news!
