[QUOTE="mcatrophy, post: 1213535, member: 3187"] The manual doesn't say, simply : Whether it's helpful having them out depends on how hot. I have heard someone say they allow engine heat to come out, but I've not found that. For me, all they do is reduce the airflow over the rider's legs. In cold weather, having them out reduces wind chill. In very hot weather (I'm talking seriously hot, something I never see), having them out may reduce cooking somewhat. If the bike's moving slowly or stopped, they make no difference. Personally, I leave them in all the time. I do enough messing about taking layers on and off, without grovelling on my knees to mess with plastic that does little more than serve to make the bike look ugly. [/QUOTE]
