Here is a short video I shot of me starting my 1931 Indian 101 Scout this morning in 18 degree temperatures.
Thought she would start and run easily in spite of the extreme cold. She did start easy but gave me some issues with keeping her running in the cold.

Had a very nice breakfast after the 15 mile or so ride.

Very cool Buzz, I did 80 miles on my Scout today temps in the low 50's and I was cold, but had a awesome ride - beautiful ! But I want no part of those kinds of temps. Hats off to ya and your beautiful 101! If I lived there and that was my 101, we would of both been in the house under blankets next to the fire place :-)

Hats off to ya Buz. That is a sweet sweet good lookin 101. Your a brave guy, its not only too cold for me, Id be sure watching for black ice under those conditions. I am in South West Canada on the coast and it never gets that cold here but there are still days to cold and black ice at times for my butt. Congrats and thanks for sharing that with us...Joe
