I see that the entire central US in in a nice deep freeze, while here in oregon just 45 and rain How is the rubie doing in the cold? Im wondering about 10 to -10F? everything all good? Does the thick oil cause for slower revs? Does the liquid cooling let it warm up nicely? Do the fenders crack? My 200SX fenders explode at that temp, I just dont see why they dont use the XR plastic on quads..I can tie my XR's plastic in knots without a break

Holding up great here. We had wind chills of -30 the other day. Had to crank it over a few extra times, but it started fine. I let it warm up a few minutes, and then headed out to plow some snow. I really didn't notice any difference in handling. It wasn't sluggish at all. The cooling fan kicked on a couple of times, so it definitely heated up alright. Overall, I'm pretty impressed with the way it handled the temps.
