Rear brake issue

When I lived in a Freezerville I kept my motorcycles in the living room. That's what real riders do.

I actually have my bikes in a heated garage. There's plenty of space and warmth to work on them. I just can't ride them.

It was -13 when I got up this morning, and they don't plow or salt the streets here so in addition to the cold temperatures, there's a nice sheet of ice and snow that has built up on all of the roads. They will put down some sand at the intersections, but otherwise we're on our own out here. Apparently for four months out of the year, this isn't a motorcycle friendly place. The rest of the year though it's great.

Mercy on you. I've lived in places where 4 months of tire chains were the norm. Most folks just rain studded tires. One or the other was required since the only paved road was the runway, and the planes had skis. You could get there by dog sled, too.
