Your tips are noted and appreciated.As a daily year round rider of 56 years here are some things I've come to learn. One thing to keep in mind when riding in colder temps, wait until the heat of the day if possible, which is usually around 2-3 pm. Stick to flat-straight roads if you can, and preferably state routes that traffic uses for daily commutes. The auto traffic tires will aid in cleaning, drying and heating the surface of the roads. Stick to the low speed lane on divided two lanes because they get the most traffic and ride the left tire track area of your lane. Avoid bridges and over passes. Throttle and brake smoothly, so sudden movements on what could be slippery surfaces. All this goes for riding in the rain as well.
I ran a set of those on my CB500X...Very nice on the road.Not today but last week.... New Scrambler tires and Black Widow exhaust.
I did The Triangle once in 30 degree weather with a dash across the plateau to take the Cherohala back to Robbinsville. Didn't see another motorcycle in 360 miles that day. 22F up on the Skyway.I went to prison............

Is the pavement still poor in many places?The triangle is in my regular rotation for rides.
Not as bad as it was several years ago. They have repaved most of it but there have been some slide-offs which is typical for this area. It is much improved.Is the pavement still poor in many places?
