The other hot tip is lower your tyre pressures by about 8psi when riding at zeroC, this creates a bigger footprint andallows the tyre to flex & warm up quicker, plus at that ambient temp it’s the correct pressure !

Most of all if it’s not fun don’t do it !!!!!
Be careful of low tire pressures. My 07' Ninja will do a little "head shake" if the front tire is below factory pressure. I had a 1973 Kaw 500 H1 that got into a severe "head shake" once due to my failure to check the front tire (tyre?) pressure.
