Mood: Daft as MartinH after too much Smirnoff Ice
Today my Multistrada oil temp gauge didn't move above 'Low' and show a reading of 40 degrees, still well below normal operating temperature until i'd done 18 miles on the way to work (mixed heavy traffic in town, followed by motorway, then more heavy town traffic). It was very chilly and raining heavily.

Its usually upto normal operating temp after 5 or 6 miles before i reach the motorway.

Just goes to show how long it can take to warm up properly when its COLD! Hailstones as well, England in December, don't you just love it. Wheres my car keys
