Does anyone ride their fiddy in the snow? I was thinking about getting one for messing around during the winter...

Speaking of winter, tommorow morning--Sunday Jan 4th, there is an expected high of -37 F with the windchill it is supposed to feel like -50 F... 50 DEGREES BELOW ZERO--FARENHEIGHT! And i'll still be out riding, I **** you not.
I'm gonna have to get a pic of me doing an endo on the bmx tommorow morning when its -50.. I don't have a digital camera tho.. we'll see.

Incase your wondering where the **** it gets as cold as -50, i'm in Regina Saskatchewan, Canada. Last year there was one day during the winter when it was the coldest place on earth. For real, it was in the news and everything, it was -52 Celcius without a windchill. Thats around -58 to -60 Farenheight. With the windchill in the city that day it was -65 C.. = about -75 F.

Myself, I was on last mountain lake out in the middle of the lake building an igloo with a bunch of friends. The wind on the lake was real bad, much harder than in the city. I estimate it was about -75 C (-88 or -90 farenheight) WITH the windchill.

No ****, its all true. Weather up here is

Then during the summer it goes up to 110 F in July...

ANHOW, my question, is does anyone know if a fiddy would start or run in real cold weather? Like -10 F? Cuz thats the usual temperature during winter here.

 

-52° C is about -45°F. But that still dam cold! In wisconsin by green bay we dont even have snow.

-52 Celcius = -62 Farenheight, actually.

So with the windchill that day at -65C, that would = -85 F according to this calculator.

And with the winchill on the lake it was -103 F!! ya!! Go igloo's!

Right now its -38 Cecius outside in the wind, thats -35 farenheight. Without the wind, its -25C, which = -13F, which is about normal on a regular day with the wind.

Anyways, maybe this thread should be moved to the general forums..

 

who cares what the temp is....you guys are arguing about it..we have rode in 17 degrees this year...onlyu cuz that is as low as it has got so far.

ride that 50....get us some pics and have fun!!

 

Put thiner oil in it and ride! I live in an average of -5 F during the winter and I've been riding.

 

damn it was 58 yesterday and the day before that it was 55, and today it was like 48

tonight and tomorrow we are suppose to have 3-6 inches of the white stuff



freakin crazy

 

yesterday was 62 when the sun was down, by tomorrow we are suppose to have 9"

 

my dad did the calculations but whatever thats still hella cold.

 

 

It will run fine, but we put a thinner oil in my fiddy and played with the jetting a bit and it runs fine. I would just let it warm up real nice before you go out. I live in Winnipeg and I knw how freakin cold it can get. Oh one more thing we where jumping ours the other day at the ski hill and its kinda nice cause the suspension is so stiff. I would go riding if I where you.

 

it's about 20 25 degrees my bike will run like **** for about 4-5 min. but after it warms up like you should with all 4 strokes it rips loves the cold

 

You should consider rejetting

 

The air up here today = natural intercooler my car has a lot more power with such cold air. I wonder what the bike will be like!

 

Just got in from an hour ride urban style. 24° F. I was surprised that my XR hooked up but I was pulling pro style wheelies for blocks. 3" of snow on the ground too.

I'm hella cold but grinning like crazy.

I need a headlight. It will be the next mod.
