Summers can be brutal here, for sure. Southern AZ can actually be a bit cooler in summer, but not by much.

Even in the higher elevations (7000+ feet)?

Sure, it's cooler there but you can't stay there forever. Wink

You can say that again Tongue

Rode up to Pinetop at 7,200 ft yesterday and it was fantastic. Unfortunately, I had to ride home today and it was 105F when I rode into town. The last hour was brutal.

It was 98 here today we have high humidity which makes it very hot. Heat index about 108

You are right, Ridem. I'm at about 1,100 miles right now. You know, I was thinking the other day I wonder if I will get 100K on this bike. The highest mileage I've had on a bike before I switched to a different one was the Honda VTX1300, which had about 35K on it when I sold it to a friend. I'm thinking I'm going to have many more miles than that on the CB1100.
