It IS kinda fun though, and to see the look on cagers faces as you go by on a bike... My friend Doug will ride in up to 5 inches of snow on his 1500 Drifter.

Last weeek we had -18*celsius and that is cold i can tell. The worst parts to protect is the fingers on the throtelhand, the left hand is easy to warm up on the engine while driving

The biggest problem when driving in a lot of snow is that the airfilter will be coverd whit snow and the bike sometimes therefore will die
