Don't knock the snow.  A friend commuted 555 days straight (this is calendar
days, and only means when he had to work he rode), in Bangor, Maine.  He and
I had ridden off road for years and stud our tires in the winter. Steve took
this one step further and bought a used KE100 cheap (they are almost free
even when new), studded it up and rode that all winter.  He let me take it
out a couple of times in 20+ inch snow storms.  WHAT A BLAST!!!  As a two
stroke, they are easy to start even when it's 20 below.

Hold off on the new ST, buy a KE and suck it up for a few months, love the
winter, by an ST in the spring and look forward to winter again.
