Crazy! The only Harley ride where engine heat was not uncomfortable!

That was a dumass commercial to do.  Hope they got the gear for free for making the spot.

8 above zero is the coldest I've ridden coming into work a few years ago, no electric gear either. I would give -8 a try but would probably invest, like they did, in my first electric clothing... ;D

Just watched the Netflix series "the ride, London to Beijing"...now that sounds like an adventure including extreme cold and heat.

Cold road - cold tires - no way

Even in the teens the loss of traction is bad enough.

And in minus temps, things break.

I have heated gear and like riding in when it's cold. Buy not interested in that ride at all. If I ever try that, please have me committed.

I haven't watched London to Beijing, but I have been watching this guy on YouTube ride from India to Mt Everest, he also rode a Road King to the tip of Australia, this guy has some balls.
