Winterizing Assistance?

Just thought I'd check to see if any of you in suddenly snowy Texas or the southern states need information on how to winterize your Nomads!

Just wanting to be helpful.

Thanks, dank! We here in Louisiana usually just wait a day then go back to business as usual. lol

Same here, but it's going to be a couple days before all this melts off. Had 13" at my house this morning.

I'm just glad the roads didn't freeze over last night, but we aren't outta the woods yet!

According to NOAA we all could winterize. Today is the only day in recorded history that there is snow on the ground in all fortynine states.

Aloha,

Thanks, but no envy here: It's true you can ride. No snow.............but only local trips!

Nomads were made for crossing state lines!

Clayton, No road salt where you live? man do they ever salt here. The black Toyauto pick up is white with salt here, so is my car grrrrrr. This salt would eat my bike up in no time.

Yea there is road salt but when I get home I quickly blast it off.
In most cases if the roads are wet I normally will not go out.
But if they are nice n dry and the temps are above 30ish then Im on the road...

According to Good Morning America, there is snow on the ground in 49 of the 50 states today!
