Today I rode my KZ 1000 80 miles, it was 24 deg F when I started in the morning and 29 when I got back. I wear snowmobile gear and it keeps me warm. Last Tuesday I rode my Concours 14 348 miles (Chicago to home) and it was 40 deg, thunder storms, steady rain and 15-30 mph winds for 260 of the miles. Can't say that was fun but it was an adventure...could never do that on the KZ.
