    Well its been a long winter here in Sweden but it finally seems to be over.
    Took the Maggie out for the first time last night, just a 10 mile shorty to adjust airpressure and stop by the local speedshop to try and get it dynoed before mods begin.
    Took it really easy to get the tires checked, let her run nice and warm and then begun streching her legs, eventually ended up hammering it to about 150, wanted to continue but I would have overshot my intersection...
    Feels fantastic to be back in a real car and not the piece of shit winter hack that I just wants to tourch at the moment!

    And now its snowing again...
    The bike is supposed to be tested for emissions etc tomorrow but it looks dark, come 1st of May I can´t use it unless its been tested.
    That thing made 190 on the first run of the year though, comming into a turn on the highway with about 185 on the speedo, leaned out and the wind went down my neck, felt like someone poured icewater in my leathers, not quite summer yet...
