Guys, I'm having real issues with my winter transport. The BMW 5 Series has fantastic heated seats and very powerful demister/climate control which means it is lovely and toasty within a few minutes. However, I don't like to use it too much in the winter as it tends to get a bit mucky, especially with the white leather interior, so I use the Nissan Navara instead. Trouble is, the bloody thing takes ages to warm up, the heater is crap and the heated seats hardly give off any warmth even on the highest setting. It's really getting me down. Sometimes I think I'd be better off using my H**** CB900 LOL!

Use my BSA M21 during the winter. I cant stand driving a car for more than a week without getting a bike out even if its freezing.

As soon as it gets below 50 90 percent of the bikes disappear , I myself ride year round . As for the June thru early September .The temp. hovers around low 90 tees to over 100 . If you riding below 40 and wearing the proper jacket / gloves you bake . Most of the bikers were tee shirts / sneakers .
