Not here it isn't!

it is starting to get cooler on our mountain rides.. 5000 to 8000 feet.. almost time to put away the summer jacket.. maybe check out the heated vest and gloves, just to be sure everything still works..

Chuckk... that is a Plexistar 2 and I painted it on the inside with Rustoleum Peel Coat- their version of Plastidip.Several coats of silver followed by dark gray to make the inside flat and non reflective.
I like the looks too, and it is quite functional. We had a cold snap here and it was nice. I think I will add the MRA touring spoiler, as recommended by a fellow member, as it is noisier than
I like. On the freeway the other day, I found that the noise decreases once I get over 80, but I don't do that all day. But I am sure the bike will.

Do you even get a full-out "winter"?

More like spring/summer'ish?, followed by the surface of Mercury?

it gets a little chilly here.. at least when one rides in the mountains 30 miles away.. I went into a 2 wheel drift on this road.. was taking a hair pin turn in the road and just drifted onto the shoulder where I hit frozen gravel.. I thought surely I would high side, but I just came to a stop.. a guy in a truck that was following me just shook his head with a smile.. I was lucky .. the temp drops to the low 40's.. that is kinda chilly when you are on a bike..[/b
[b]one more pic.. it is just beautiful in the mountains when it snows ..

Beautiful pics Chuck, are those the Topatopa mountains?

Looks conducive of getting that knee down on the bends.

What is that white stuff on the pictures?
