cold weather engine performance

Hey all, do you have any thoughts about what tires are good/what tires are murderous if they see a touch of snow? Thanks, -Lujo '99 KLR 650 '89 Vulcan 750

Ted, I ride to work when the mercury is in the low 30's and have never had a problem. It may take a little more choke to start and a little longer to warm up when it's cold out, but once warm it runs like a champ. Not sure what to tell you to look for since it revs OK past 4500, but I'll bet someone else can. Good luck! Arden Kysely A11 "Mr. K"
