It doesn’t get cold enough where I dwell to prevent year round riding. After this thread I went shopping and they don’t fit my lifestyle as I’m am adventure rider (completed the Iron Butt 1000 for an idea of what I’m referring to). I like the idea but I’d have to be not a poor to be able to have an extraneous vehicle. As it stands I commute on an electric scooter and I’d rather suicide than have to travel farther than it will get me to my job. I expect in a decade or so they’ll be more feasible and illegal in Florida😉.
Well, it’s not a tipping point but a gradient. And batteries are affected more on a motorcycle simply because there’s no cabin to hide them in.
Really depends on a rider, really. Past few winters, I didn’t stop riding at all save when it was raining or snowing, which was a few weeks total.
