Roger that Ollie.
Yeah, it would be at least a 2022 model.
Have you been stuck idling in hot, stuffy, summer traffic with it? If so, any other grumbles other than heat wafting up from the cylinders? (All motorcycles give off the same amount of heat whether air or water cooled, respectively of course. Heat is heat - just a matter of cooling the cylinders well enough.)
What has been the coldest temperature you have successfully ridden the V85TT?
Will it run well and reliably at -4F without complaining too much - you think?
