Wouldn't be a bad idea to pull things apart a get rid of that white grease and replace it with a high quality water proof grease.
Swing arm, steering head, foot peg, rear shock, rocker arm, axles...etc. You could even repack your wheel bearings since the snow isn't gonna melt in the next little while.  I use Motorex

I think I may have to build a garage this summer.

No don't build a garage, you are living our dream keep the bike in the house!!!
Just please remember make sure the breather hose from the PV under the skid plate needs to be open; mine was cable tied off. Oh.. after that and you run the bike it will have a few drops of oil drip onto the floor so you will need a catch pan.

Ya I was wondering about that yesterday. I noticed it was ty-rapped shut. Wasn't sure if I should leave it or open it up.

All you guys out there- don't know what your talking about- my pampera is in the entryway right now waiting for new fork seals to be put in- and my husband doesn't mind a bit

I've been on 4-stroke KTM's since 2002 and planned on going back to 2T's on an orange 300XC, but these have my re-thinking my plans. These are some seriously nice looking bikes. I'm just wondering how the suspension matches up to the WP units. I'm more interested knowing these come to the US/NA with Zokes/Ohlins instead of Sachs.
Congrats on the bike.

I couldn't stand it anymore and the temp was above zero so I took the bike down the driveway a couple of times. That wasn't doing it for me so I went to the snowmobile trails.
   The bike got better traction than I thought it would in snow. Didn't go all that far, maybe a mile, would have been hours of shoveling if I got off the trail! I found the bike would float nicely on top of the snow in 2nd gear as long as you were easy on the throttle. Also found a 100'X3' wide stretch of gravel on the way to the trail. I think I am really gonna like this bike.
