    Any motorcyclists here?

    As the title really. Just bought a little CBR600F as a winter hack - was cheap as chips and rides like a beaut - got pretty lucky. Feels good to be back in the seat after a year of not riding.

    Just in time for that Indian Summer

    Was just thinking about getting some winter tyres from my MT-03

        Yep, still got my Bandit 650 which was my first big bike and I picked up a VFR800 at the start of the year which I took over to France.

        Always loved the CBR's but they're too small (physically) for me, personally.

            Welcome back to motorcycling . The old CBR600F (Carb and FI variants) were bullet proof and so easy to ride; decent wind protection also which will be useful when the temperature drops.

              is that a paradox ?

              isn't it the other way around, bike in the summer car in the winter

              Milan.

                Not if you're commuting. Traffic's worse in winter.

                    ah those were the days, I commuted by bike all year round, 400 miles a week, loved the fact my journey was fairly predictable unlike when in the car.
