It isn't bad. I do it from time to time.

Thinking about HID's though.

During the summer I do it, but now it is getting too cold.

32F and sunny is alot different from 32F at night.

I don't mind night riding now that I have a bike with good headlights. The rebel Sucked! I hated being out after dark cause I had to have drewpy behind me or I couldn't see.

But don't mind it now I've done it a few times since that's pretty much the only time I can ride anymore.

I hear ya thr. I'm curious how this fall will be with my ultra. Worse case scenario I can always put on the tall windshield to get a few more rides in the cold.

Otherwise my night vision is fine, the headlight and 2 spot lights on the front of the hd make life nice (day or night).

Hell the other night marko and I rode home in the dark with rain and it was fine. No worries!

Keep f'in tt chicken!

I do it sometimes, but gotta be careful of deer and pigs. Generally do it alone.

That sucks and would be terrible for me. I have trouble seeing in the dark or the rain, putting the two together wouldn't be good. I would be SLLLLLOOOOWWWW but would take my time and get to where I needed....just would need a massage afterward from being tensed up.
