    Re: Cold tires and cold road

    I went with PP's because it's a 15k bike and PP's have always warmed the quickest for me, I figured I really needed to get rid of the DOT takeoffs in New England.

    I can do rolling burnouts at any point going down the street in the morning even with PP's. It's COLD out and my tires feel like bricks but there is no replacement for riding the ol' gal around.

    Here's to hoping for some 40 degree weather next week.

    That sir is 100% correct
