I wouldn't want to ride a motorbike in the winter. I gotta agree with Torontoboy. I'd rather ride my bicycles in the winter. You make your own heat and your aren't going as fast. Sheeet, it's already getting too cold in the mornings for me to ride my motorcycle into work. I'm taking the cage. :cry:

So, this is my first season riding. I've (so far) managed to put about 8,000kms on my Nighthawk this year. I need to learn how to tone it down as I always seem to find myself exceeding the speed limit somehow... Also, I find myself getting overconfident in my abilities. This put me in a couple "...
