Ducati's in the snow
In the Midlands , just been over the Lickey Hills & snow is pretty bad , roads are really slippy as not gritted as not forcasted ?
Luckly I was in the car , passed a guy on a bike , stopped to see if he wanted to leave his bike & I'll give him a lift , he was a Italian on a Ducati Monster which was carb icing & kept stalling , he said no he would be fine , I hope he was as the road was well dodgy , if I was on a bike I would have stopped and parked up ( then again I 've binned bikes before in the snow and I've learnt by the experience) Cheers Steve

Re: got snow here
just come down from northampton via bedford on the A1, i forgot to take my waterproof boots, was soaked though boots/trousers/gloves, it was like having hands in bowl of ice, bike decided it wanted to give a false alarm telling me it was running too hot, yeh right, seems like there must have been a short on the sensor.
