Have you noticed an odd temperature phenomenon at high speeds?

We went up I-81 north last week and with clear highway and no exits ahead of us, we played a little.
It was rather chilly but over 85 mph, it seemed to actually “get warmer”.

Some weird fluke or is there a “scientific” reason?
He noticed it, too.

So far I’ve had mine up to 90.
There’s really not much opportunity for both clear lanes and no cops around here.

Now that you mention it, I think I have noticed that phenomenon. But only in a range, you get below certain temps and it does not apply :-)

One phenomenon I really noticed on the the early flat 4 jap bikes, was that they got real light on the front end at 120+.
