Not sure what the coldest was last year, but I was riding to tunbridge wells and back and I know that that area had some of the worst snow in the country. Also didn't finish work until 9pm some nights so it must have been minus a couple of degree's.
Also IIRC for every 10mph faster it feels 1 degree colder.
I'm even more undecided now what to go for ____________________ I am a bellend, I am a man of constant sorrow, I am a gummy bear, I am a rock. |

I used muffs for a while last year, they were sports bike ones and I was attempting to get them on an NTV which didn't really work so well. They were good while they were on though, a little restrictive and a pain in the arse above 60 (pressing on levers), but they kept the elements out pretty well. Didn't stop the general coldness though, just the wind and precipitation.
I guess I will pop down to HG and take a look at what they have in stock, I will probably go for leather based on this thread.
Priority number 1 is that they zip to my jacket, so they will be HG or Pro Sport. I guess I will also by some thermals, and another neck tube since I can't find my old one, and some winter gloves.
I'm going to stop thinking now before my list grows longer ____________________ I am a bellend, I am a man of constant sorrow, I am a gummy bear, I am a rock. |

Leather trousers with waterproof overtrousers and Sidi Black Rain boots. And I add a thermal base layer for the really cold weather.
For the top half I tend to wear textile jackets all year round, and occasionally use Cold Killers underneath my gloves ____________________ 1st bike (Sept'06 - May'10) : 1991 GPZ500S / Current bike (since Nov 2009) : 2003 Suzuki Bandit 600N

I have bought a leather coat from Amazon. Build quality of this product is fantastic. Leather jackets are good windbreaker. Also, leather jackets are more stylish. An article about the leather coat is https://bestproducts-4u.com/best-windbreakers/ |
