That's quite funny about the stick on headlight, hope you don't get pulled. How do you find those tyres on the road and getting heat into them? Would love a side on shot of the bike.

Ah the worst they can do is give me a fix it ticket. Not the end of the world.
It is very difficult to get slicks up to temp on the street, practically impossible I'd say unless you're riding like a total eejit. It's only very hard acceleration / braking and high speeds that gets race tyres melty.
Honestly though, they don't need to be - any old tyres work OK cold on dry roads if you pump them up a bit. Can't be arsed to spend 350 on a new set just to go for a little spin.
Sweet Hondas Radiobomb, that old C50 was my first ever bike. I had two, a green one and a blue one. Lovely.

Shade tree lighting. All desert riding areas and trail heads are closed lest we give corona virus to a desert turtle.
So I’m popping lights on the race bike for a pootle on the twisties. The back one actually is pretty legit. I have two led strips and a fake stick on headlight decal (a la WSB) for the front. Should be good for a passing glance. Might cut a couple of notches in the Tyres too...
Lock down ennui.
