Yea, I draw the line at riding on ice and snow, although I have gotten caught and forced to ride on both. Don't mind ice and snow on the sides of the road, as long as the roads themselves are clear.
I also don't worry that much about salt. Been riding amongst it for years. I just avoid the piles. It has never affected my bikes in a negative way that I have noticed. The other day I rode down to my local shop with a question for a mechanic I know there. He asked me how I could ride when there was salt out. I simply told him my bikes have so many miles on them anyway they are worth more to me as rides than they are to others who would rather have a clean low mileage bike. I mean what is a 10 year old Honda with close to 100,000 miles on worth it anyway? He shrugged his shoulders and agreed.
