It wasn't 13 below when I tried to start it. That was how cold it had been in the night, it was however around zero. My old Honda would start, as would my brother's Greeves in that kind of weather. Both had kick starters. As for riding, I only wanted to see how the thing handled on ice when I wasn't in a position to HAVE to. My younger brother has studded tires and a side car on a Honda, he also ice races. The Bonny is too high geared, and the tires are too smooth to be comfortable on ice. When the tires wear, they will be replaced with something more agressive suitable for riding some dirt Eventually I will get surprised at work and have to leave it there the way the weather is around here. The charging and light bulb did the trick. I have already gone to 10-40 oil. Maybe we do need ticklers on our carbs. Enough rambling, I feel for you who have long winters.
