Winter Riding Setup

[CIP57_imp]

I just installed a NC Plexistar2 for the winter. I have had these on other naked bike, it works real well on the CB.

Ventured out this morning to test the shield. Temp was 29 degrees, as soon as i put my helmet on the shield fogged up, yep it was cold. Had my heated jacket along with a 3 season windproof jacket and windproof ski pants.

The plexi2 keeps all the wind from your helmet ( no buffeting) allowing me to crack the face shield for DE-fogging. Ten minute's into the ride i lowered the heated gear to a comfortable 50% usage. My hands where cool but well protected from the wind, need to find a solution for my feet, after 50 miles they where a bit cold, thought about my heated socks but remembered how uncomfortable the wires can be on your feet.

The bike handled amazingly well through my favorite twisty road at 10mph above the speed limit. The PR3's warm up fast and no problem with snake strips with the cold temps.

I know it doesn't compliment the bike but will allow you to ride in very cold temps very comfortably. I may even try it for long summer trips.
