I'll ride when it's down in the 20's F. I just received my new Gerbing's G3 heated gloves yesterday, as well as my heated hand grips today. The hands are my only trouble areas when riding in the cold. My feet get somewhat cold after a long ride, but not ever to the point of going numb like my hands do. I'll be looking forward to testing out all of my heated equipment tonight once I get home. I should be in the low 30's by then. YAY! lol

That is pretty cold.
Anything above 30 degrees and I am good to ride. (for a short ride that is)

I had that problem once, it would want to die at stoplights with my idle controller all the way up. Sooooooo cold, but theres something very refreshing about riding in cold weather and getting all bundled up.

Already did all that. It's in my other post: https://www.kawasakiforums.com/m_127.../tm.htm#130289

I haven't posted any pics as of yet, but they'll be coming soon.
