Downtown 300 / Re: Warming Up THE DOWNTOWN?
« on: October 03, 2016, 06:04:52 AM »
Just to be sure here,
It will get very cold here in Canada
we are talking in the minuses at times,
so the warming up for 3 minutes
until the gage is up; is likely best right?

Wow thanks everyone!
Yes I usually let it idle for about 3 minutes,
long enough for the Gage to move up,
than I take off and yeah I don't rev it.

Downtown 300 / Warming Up THE DOWNTOWN?
« on: October 02, 2016, 07:53:55 PM »
I am wondering something about when we start up this bike. Should I always wait until the bike warms up after the dash Gage thing moves up to halfway, or does this matter? Maybe in the cold months?

Oh yes lots of crap salt etc. I do try to only take it when the road is fairly decent and only go to the grocery stores not long rides. Yes for sure will rinse it down. My post though is more on things to look out for when one gets so many KM's on it and what can possibly come up that needs looked at.

Hey ya all I am wondering something. I have almost 9000k's on my Downtown now. I took three fairly big trips? this summer and may do yet one more before the harsh cold comes here in Canada. What should I be aware of if any issues with the bike. What should I be checking on the bike to make sure all is in good shape. I know tires, brakes, oil, bolts/nuts but is there anything else I should be aware of? THANKS!
