How does one ride year round in states that see moderate to heavy winters? Do you get studded tires?I’ve heard for the cold you can just wear a snowmobile suite but what do you do for traction if you happen to hit some black ice?I’m tired of the desert bros but I like being able to ride year round without worry

i'm picking up this klx 300 soon, and i'm looking at helmets. i imagine i'll do mostly trails and stuff. if i do much road riding it'll be around town and not highway stuff.
what's the correct play with getting a helmet? get an offroad helmet and a street one? or just an offroad one and use it in town too? or go with like an adv helmet?

i ordered this ls2 blaze 2 in large and i feel like it's too big and too small. the size range is 59-60 cm for L and 57-58 for M. my head is like 58.7cm. i have to crank the little strap under the chin all the way, and i can still grab the chin bar and pull it up and the helmet slides back on my head, or i can push up at the back of my skull and the helmet pivots on my head. not really any side to side motion though.
i sat around in it this morning and after 20 minutes it started killing my jaw. it's pushing my cheeks in and i had to take the helmet off it was driving me nuts.
so i dunno about that. i think i'm going to get a different helmet anyway and take this one back to cycle gear. i think i'm just gonna do an MX helmet and wear goggles on the road. i thought this would be kinda neat for my supermoto but i don't really like how the faceshield feels.any mx helmet recommendations?

I'm contemplating spending 300 dollars and hours of my life trying to remove a rebel 300 air box to make a good 2hp increase.
Talk me out because I am probably replacing the bike in 2 years

do you think it would be a bad idea to "practice riding" at night? i haven't been on a motorcycle since i rode dirt bikes when i was like 14. i'm 28. i just got this drz. when i went to pick it up from the guy, he was out in the sticks and i stalled it twice letting the clutch out too fast, but after that no problem. i got all the way to fifth gear and tried to click another and realized "oh that's what people mean by that". it was very comfortable and i was excited to be back riding.now i'm home and my neighborhood literally dumps out onto a 50 mph main street and there's always traffic. I planned to go do a 10 minute trip to go get some lunch today and i pussied out pulling out onto the main road. i was paranoid i'd fumble it shifting or stall it pulling off from a stoplight or something. so i just puttered around the neighborhood for a bit and came inside and wrote this post.
it just feels like a lot. i pull away in first and now the revs are high so i pull the clutch click up a gear, think about your throttle, now i'm turning, engine sounds like it's bogging drop a gear, stop sign coming up, clutch and front brake and rear brake and then stomp down to first, keep clutch held, blinker, mirrors, look both ways,
the whole time i'm just in my head like this. and it's fine when a couple cars pass me by in the neighorhood but the idea of having cars all around me, and having to mentally process all this is daunting.
do i just nut up and do it? or do i wait until it's like 11 pm and the roads are empty and i can ride the big boy road without scary cars

Instead of the Nightster/Vrod should i just get an older Breakout with the Twin-cam engine?
It's a nice looking bike

I don't know how I'm supposed to mount this rack
the bit marked in orange bolts on where the saddle bolts on, that's fine. I need to get some steel cut to support it at the eyes marked in green, but I don't know where they're meant to attach to

what sort of storage would you recommend putting on a bike? i don't need a ton of space, just to get shit out of my pockets, maybe a bottle of water, etc.
i was thinking about either a couple liter tank bag, or a handlebar bag. does a bag on the handlebars change how they feel to move? how big can i get on a tank bag before it starts to feel weird to stand up / scoot forward on the tank?
