I thought Bali was near the equator. How does the temperature drop to 30°?

Get the modular FF. Don’t use Bluetooth. Don’t ride 2up until you get at least 2k miles in.
There is a lot going on on the road. You can’t afford distractions when you are a new rider.

Nah, don't think so. He said 110 to 30. If it was Celsius that would translate to 230° to 86° Fahrenheit. That guy is definitely a troll and by his posts he certainly gives enough clues.

From Wikipedia

Being just 8 degrees south of the equator, Bali has a fairly even climate year round. Average year-round temperature stands at around 30°C with a humidity level of about 85%.[42]

Day time temperatures at low elevations vary between 20-33°C (68-91°F), but the temperatures decrease significantly with increasing elevation.

The west monsoon is in place from approximately October to April, and this can bring significant rain, particularly from December to March. During rainy season there is comparatively fewer tourists seen on Bali. During the Easter and Christmas holidays the weather is very unpredictable.[43]

Outside of the monsoon period, humidity is relatively low and any rain is unlikely in lowland areas.

Reported thread - not that it will do any good.

IB must figure this tool is good for business or something. I say....






edit: yeah just as I suspected, got a reply from a forum Mod saying they investigated my complaint and found no violation of forum rules by the OP.

So what are your recommendations?
I recommend that you coordinate your lies so as to not further stretch your existing non credibility on this forum.

As you posted on another thread earlier

"I have a dead battery how long does it take for a HD tri kle charger to top of a battery The bike is a 2017 ultra I've been riding since 1975 in northern Ohio with everything from a sportster to road king to ultra. And never had a battery take a dump over the winter even with stRying when the temps got to the upper 40 what the hell happened bad bat or what?"
