warm gloves
Rode 100 miles Sunday in about 38 to 30 degree weather, at night and on the freeway.
My thumb tip was hurting the most along with the finger tips. I have heated grips on my Limited, on high and heavy leather gloves.
Are heated gloves a must? Any better gloves than the cheep ones I own that will keep your finger tips warm in below freezing temps?
Also what do you wear under your jacket and chaps to keep warm? Toes in your boots?
The heated gear is $$$ , a must?
The Limited is to much fun to park , what do you suggest?

+1 on all replies above. Pricey but the best money I've spent when you consider it lengthens your riding season to "year-round" depending on snow. I've been out in the teens with no problem whatsoever. The only cold part on my body is my face and that's only because I wear a beanie. If you go that route, a first investment MUST is the jacket and gloves w/ temp controller. If you only go with one or the other, the opposite will "feel" colder. That's my and I'm stickin to it. :-)

I have a heated jacket liner and the T5 gloves and cold temps don't seem to bother me any more. Wear motorcycle pants with polar fleece base layer on my legs. Thick socks and Sidi Goretex boots keep my feet warm. Also a helmet balaclava (to keep face and neck warm) with full face helmet (lots of anti fog spray on visor) is a must at freezing temps.
