Riding in the snow.

[yamanube]

Took the KLX out for a bit this weekend, a little snow and no studs makes you feel like a circle track racer. Going to get some studs soon to hit the lakes.

Sorry no action pics.

I tried to ride down the street once in the snow on my CR250R. I made it about one hundred yards and then proceeded to slide sideways for the next hundred yards. Went backwards for a few more yards and crashed completely backwards still moving about 10 miles an hour. I then walked my bike home and gave up riding anything with two wheels on snowy streets.

If the streets are slick at all with ice, don't expect to see me on 2 wheels.

Otherwise, I'm on 2 wheels no matter the temperature. Thank goodness it doesn't precipitate much here.

Back in the day I ran 1" sheet metal screws from the inside out on my CT70, double tubed it and towed my brother around on a sled. It worked awesome, but eventually the screw heads poked through and made the tube leak.

I rode a DRZ200 on the street all winter here, just sheet metal screws from the outside in and replaced them as they wore from the pavement. That winter was blast, only crashed 2-3 times (clean pavement was the slipperiest).
Now I have been iceracing for over 25 years, its an addiction like my jetski's. Here's me on my wifes bike (blew my motor up).
