Whats the temperature in england ? in norway theres been -14 degrees today.

 owch thats harsh, been -2 to about +2C today where im at in scotland, pretty sure its been colder down south in england tho not my much -5C maybee

My last spin on my dt was a week ago. was about -10 degrees. though i was going to freeze my finger tips off.

No snow or ice on the roads that day though. so could give some throttle.

Hahahaha xD. That never happened for me xD. Ive been driving alot the last coupple of months with temperatures below 0. Was driving alot last year too with about -10 degrees an alot of snow. last year was a much colder winter than this one.

Ahh well yes my feet were like ice cubes as well as my fingers but. got lost on the way back. my tomtom died on me so had to use my phone and that took me to the M6???? I was like WTF!!!!! Ohh Shhh... I'm not ment to be on here... then my Mobile run out of battery!!! I was like Ohh man I'm lost lol.. Stoped off at the service station to see if i could charge my tomtom or phone but they had nothing.. so looked in the mapbook lol.. and found my way home. Cant believe i didnt get pulled over on M6.

 strange my carb freezes up all the time when temps below 0 cant give full throtle or i end up broke down (and my bike doesnt have a tool kit so i need to carry a spanner for my plug and a bottle of brake cleaner to start it again)

---

 frezoi u got the heater pipe connected up to the carb??

I got an iridium Hot glow plug in my bike so it bruns better and gets a good spark. but When im sittin at the lights my bike just dies on me as the idle is always at 1.5 to start with but after sitting waiting for the lights to change it drops down and then dies on me. I have no idea why though.

Both mate its just when I'm waiting at the lights with clutch in.
