When I bought my new ’66 Amazon I lived in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan where -40 (C or F, take your pick) was not uncommon in the winter. A block heater, a heated plate under the battery, a chunk of cardboard over the rad with a 6” hole in the middle, and the lightest oil you could find was the formula for winter starting success and creature comfort. The biggest issue was seeing through the ice fog while on the road. :-)

Properly tuned and prepped these babies will start and run quite nicely in winter’s worst.

Cheers,
