ragtop69gs Posted November 20, 2011 Share #26 Posted November 20, 2011 Back in the late summer (Aug-Sept) of 2010 we were riding through Yellowstone and got caught in a snow storm, just enough to cover the roads with an inch or so, the RSV handled it much better than I did The worst part of it was the wet snow that piled up on the windshield blocking my view of the road. It was at dusk and had been raining for the past hour when it turned to snow, I had to stand on the boards and wipe the snow off several times. We made it to West Yellowstone, where we had a room waiting, cold , wet , hungry and tired. We also got snowed on earlier in the day on top of beartooth pass. I was there in '09 and it was near 100* ! What a difference a year makes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgebill Posted November 21, 2011 Share #27 Posted November 21, 2011 I cannot even imagine trying to ride my RSTD on snow. I have a 200' dirt driveway, which gets pretty loose in the spring when the ground thaws. I get enough of a pucker factor just riding on that. No way I'd try riding on snow!

scotty Posted November 21, 2011 Share #28 Posted November 21, 2011 A person would have to be a nut case to even consider riding a touring class bike anywhere near snow.........What specifically did you want to know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
