I ride every day, and when I head out to work in the morning it's still dark and the temps here in Raleigh are starting to get into the 30's at night.
I've a 2011 Fatboy, 96 ci, and when I got to work this morning after a 15 mile highway ride in 39 degrees, the oil temp was 120!
Seems it can't be good for the bike if the engine never gets up to "normal" temps.
I'm a new rider, riding for 7 months, and it has always been my intent to ride all year. My warmth is covered, but I hate to stop riding just because of the temperature. Seems some way of blocking the wind, like some sort of cover on the engine guard, might help?
Any ideas?
