Not perfect every day, but how far south would I have to move from Ontario, to be in a climate where I can expect to never put the bike away for the winter?

 

Miami

 

I know it's different coasts but the California central valley never has to be put away. Sure there are days of rain but there's not a month you can't get out and ride at least a few days.

 

I'd say at least as far south as Georgia.

 

Waaaay south of Wisconsin. I just did my last ride of the season yesterday. I'm bummed.

 

North Carolina

 

another vote for Georgia

 

That's a relative question. One of the mechanics at Heritage HD rides his Harley year round. He puts knobby tires on for winter! It's a hoot to see him drive in a snow storm!

 

+1. As long as the roads are dry I'm riding. Gerbings gear is a huge benefit towards extending your riding season and time in the saddle. Forecast is in the upper 60's and sunny today so I will be out on the bike this afternoon. Probably be meeting up with a few other folks for a ride.

 

None of my bikes have ever been put to sleep for the winter, last snow here was xmas eve 2004 and prior to that was 1973.

It can get cold 32f but never for more than a few hours at a time.
