Things I wish I knew about when I first started riding?

Number one.....after 4 years of riding and probably 40K miles......heated grips.

Where the hell was I when these were talked about........the greatest thing since sliced bread. Dropped a big $35 on a set from Symtec......work flawless.

Now I have them on my ATV......and my sons ATV. Hes been out bombing around the track in 30 degree weather on his LT80 with toast hands.....good times.

yep, you could heat your gear from head to toe if you wanted to.

sliced bread came out in 1928. I wish I knew how much money I would spend on bikes through the years, not that it would have changed anything. I might have picked better bikes to last a little longer

You COULD just move to Florida!
