I found the Kalkaska for $175 on amazon, the heated pant liners are $200, but without a dual controller which is another $100 I can't use them. The fact I wear the bibs over my work attire is a nice selling point too, so I might just give them a try and I'll let you know. I need the gloves too, but my poor bike sitting there breaks my heart lol.

The very first thing you absolutely must buy to be warm is the Gerbing electric jacket liner with sleeves. Imagine putting your jacket in a dryer on high heat and then putting it on only it NEVER cools down. Too cool for words when you turn it up as it can make you sweat while riding. The collar is actually heating your neck while you ride. The Carhart coverall is definitely effective but secondary to the liner. If I was starting over I would buy the clothes first and leave my bike stone stock. JMHO. In addition I never imagined after 40 Years I would ever ride with a full face helmet but believe me if the temps drop below 35 I'm wearing mine. I have a friend who has 100 thousand miles on not one but two Sportsters who turned me on to the FF helmets for Iron Butt riding. What a difference and detracts from riding very little in moderate temperatures while adding comfort when riding in bitter cold. I probably wouldn't wear it if I lived in southern Florida or California but when faced with the reality of Michigans climate....
