I have a naked bike, and start work at daft o'clock when it's coldest. But I don't think we've reached real "cold" yet. Wait a few weeks, when it's -5 or so...

I've turned on the heated grips and wear mittens and a jumper, but I haven't started wearing the base layer yet. Keeping that in reserve.

After about half an hour at motorway speeds this morning I was bloody glad to get back in to town and get stuck at some traffic lights so I could warm my hands on my radiators. First time I have been grateful for the side mounted twin radiators on the VFR. I think I might need some warm furry muff.

[Cadbury]

Surprisingly warm up in Scotland.
Not really felt the need for my heated grips this week. I think it's the calm before the storm though

[Islander]

Psh. Wimp.

I might have to zip my jacket up soon though.

[bikertomm]

It was freezing for a good couple of minutes till the heating started to work in my car

Not that bad out today, a little frosty/chilly to start with but once riding the sun came out and seems quite nice out now.

My RR usually runs at 100+ degrees so gets me warm in no time

I started using my car for the 200 miles to Oxford and back that I do every week, but I couldn't resist this morning and came in on my bike. It's taken a while to get the feeling back into my fingers: naked bike, no heated grips, muffs or mittens. I had my winter gloves on though.

Edit: awesome filtering when I got near Oxford though

I have this KTM with a pair of Hand-guards fitted as standard, stopped on Dartmoor this morning to rub my hands together for a couple of mins and check out the view - thermometer read minus 2, never had Hand-guards before and I've got to say they are flippen excellent for keeping the wind chill off - all those years of exposed gloves to the wind, why did i do that?- mind you i'm not sure a sports-bike would look right with hand-guards on!

Muffs and summer gloves still appropriate so far, frosty windows all round this morning though.

[goto10]

Muffs are going on this weekend, temperature is just at the point of becoming uncomfortable.

Just using the Hein Gericke Pathan 2 finger gloves.
I'm thinking of heated grips but atm I can't really feel the need.
Hands nice and toasty warm.

I need to dig out the lining for my winter trousers though.

I will be riding an unfaired 500 this winter as a runaround so things are going to be interesting.

Bought a non branded pair of winter bike gloves at an auto-jumble last year and they're as warm as toast.
They were as cheap as chips and I wish I`d have got a second pair for when these ones die.
No need for heated grip with them

As for base layers and liners back into the trousers and jacket : Hell yes, you bet your life they`re going back in !

Winter sock in the boots? dam right!

Bollocks to getting cold, I`ve had my share of that.

I stuck some woolly gloves under my summer gloves this morning and stuck a hoodie on under the jacket.

It might be that I'm a dozy teenager and don't feel the cold too much or that 6 and a halfish miles at half eight in the morning isn't all that cold. I do have handguards though.

I am weighing up sticking the winter liner in my jacket next week though and some decent winter gloves from the bike show, my current winter gloves are tatty as anything.

I am also considering maybe getting some heated pads to go under the grips and maybe bodging up an easily removable windscreen that doesn't damage the bike.
