December 18 2007, 62,230km

It's been a while since the last entry in the blog, but no news is good news: the XJ did and does it's job perfectly. Meanwhile I've done almost 50,000km on the bike in 2 and a half year. Buying this Yamaha has been a good decision.
Winter has arrived in The Netherlands and temps are around zero Celcius during daytime. When I wanted to leave from work this evening the XJ refused to start and we had to push start it. The battery had enough juice, so I guess it must have been something to to with the mixture. When the bike finally started you could smell the fuel. I guess I drowned the bike a bit. Next time I'm going to start it with the lights off and with the heated gloves disconnected and without using the throttle. That should do the trick to have a nice spark and the correct mixture.
Wish this winter was over...
