Riding in Winter
What are some tips.... My bike's performance isn't nothing like it was during the summer, and yes I know it's a 250 but since it's getting real cold like I'll go for a ride in the morning like I do everyday around 5am and it'll be 20 to 30 deegrees... well my bike always seems to want to bog out and I was wondering what I could do to prevent that I let the bike warm up for like 5mins with the choke on.

I simply asked a question on why my bike wants to bog out when it's cold and it doesn't do it when it's warm.... Is that some sort of a crime that dicates that you are allowed to flame me for a simple question!?
It's a shame i can't ask and maybe get help without some inmature people flaming me.... It's a valid question! Jesus christ!

Re: Riding in Winter
its buecase its a carb'd bike and its just not warmed up yet....
and yes, if your that stupid than you deserve to be made fun of.
and you dont get cold weather in virginia so dont worry about it. the next time you have a high of 5 degrees, then make a thread
