at last years Maggie Valley ride , on my WG3 with no heat, no windshield ... 29 , also did a 300 mile from 29-47 on the same bike.   Now that I traded her in on my 103" FLHX with heated seat /grips and the dragon wings .. even 40 is toasty , waiting for the colder temps with an evil grin. 8)

Mid to upper 20's is about my limit, and it needs to be sunny then.  We don't get snow and ice, except on very rare occasions, but we get some 38 degree and damp days that just chill me to the bones.  At temps below 60, the chaps come out, mostly because they offer good protection from both wind and road rash, also the heavy leather jacket with zip out liner.  We get some 20 degree nights here in B'ham, but if it's sunny, it'll usually warm up into the 40's/50's.  Heated grips and seats are the best thing since sliced bread.

Into the 20s as long as it's dry.Salt userally ends our season before the cold does.Going for heated grips this year when the bike goes in for our 20% parts & labor sale.Hands have always been the first thing to get cold.
