Default Winterizing...

any tips? h: I live in Milwaukee so we see the extream's. Im debating wether or not to take off my Parada's. I only rode them in one snow fall with my last set and they did ok. Im more worried about the salt on the clear coat.

I'll probably do good wax job in early December. Any tips on saving the interior from snowy/salty shoes? Cheap floor mats maybe ?

other then that.......? h:

Get some beefy rubber floor matts to keep your carpet in good condition.

You're gonna have to raise your shiz Andy! You're gonne have problems if there's any more than 2 inches of snow. Last winter I didn't raise mine back up and got stuck a few times. F-in snow plow. Other than that, wax, ****ty floor mats, and a bag to throw your garbage in.

Yeah take off the c/f hood. They can stand up to it but there's no point in keeping it on. It's only 4 bolts to take it off anyways.
