If you live in a part of the world that has "seasons"... is riding over for you yet? I just took the 10R out for a spin. It's about 50'.. roads are damp and leaves on the ground in corners. Without my electric vest on I would have been frozen.
Tires had no problem hooking up, but I can feel the end is near...
On the plus side the bike loves the cold air and seat of the pants dyno reports more power!
I'm sure all of you people who live in Arizone simply cant relate to any of this.
But you also dont know what a corner or a mountain looks like either !

I ride mine as long as there isnt snow on the road. Last year my wife told me I was an idiot for riding the bike when it was in the 20's.

I don't officially park the bike in the winter. I'll ride it if it is in the upper 30's or higher and no snow or ice.

90's too hot to ride? No no no.
Agreed......that's too hot at all, never too hot (at least not in this part of the world)....... ____________

Not even close, we are just winding up a week of rain, though.
I might ride the Reefer Bike less, though. The DR350 gets me to the colorful back places where those streetbikes won't go, and the copper Busa blends in so nicely with the scenery this time of year......
I have never seen LESS fall colors than I have this year.

Ride as long as it's above 40Farenheit.
Not cold at all Fishy, hell I wear all perforated all year round. I get pumped and don't get really cold. Just wear long sleeves under my jacket. My leather pants though are non-perforated. Gloves have knuckle vents, that isn't too bad.
Normally I ride till beginning of December and bring it back out at the 1st of March.
Soooooooo 3-4months it's in Lockdown here in OHIO.
