scooters in the snow
Plugged in the Xmas lights while clearing 6" off of the drive.
Don't exhale when taking a snap on a cold night.
I think it was BRed that said that these Dunlop Scooter tires are not too good in the mud. Well today I figured out these Dunlops are also pretty much useless in the snow. I have ridden a scooter shod with Michelin City Grips - and found them to be much better in snow. I won't try this again....
Mid 20's F and was good to let the Forza out of the garage for an hours ride.

Re: scooters in the snow
Man - I'm hungry to get on the scoot, but you are DESPERATE!
So... can you get studded snow tires for scooters?
On a more serious note, I will be waiting for a good rain or two or three to get rid of the salt on our roads before Mantis sees the pavement. But that won't be for a while...

On my scoot, getting there is WAY more than half the fun!

scooters in the snow
Vancouver doesn't have Canada's most expensive real estate for nothing. Keep the beautiful snow pictures coming, we hardly get any snow here.
To be fair, I can't ride my scooter right now either. I picked up a nail last night. Only 12 hours and I'm going through major scooter withdrawal already. I can't imagine 3 to 6 months without.

Re: scooters in the snow
In canada one province ( Quebec ) has a law that ( cars motorcycles ,scooters )anything driving on there roads must have snow tires between the month of nov1 to end of March (I think these dates are correct ) even if the roads are bare ,no snow or ice on them, and it's nice and sunny , I thought that the would be no motorcycles on the road until i. Found out michelin makes a winter tire for scooters !
