I added Cycle Gear's heated jacket liner and glove liners for times like that. Used it twice this past weekend when my skinny frame could not keep up with the heat loss via the wind. On the last day the morning warmed up quickly so it was not used very long but I'll tell you; cold can ruin your ride (you don't enjoy the ride and if you wait too long hypothermia sets in and your judgement goes to pot, muscles tighten up and you are unable to react like you need to - simply a bad thing all around) and having electrics was a godsend. Highly recommended. Just buy them when they are on sale. Smile
Oh, I've got'em. I just need to wear'em Confused

I love em. I bought myself a new liner this year.

Indeed. Though this week we are having sunny and 70 degrees, so that's a nice reprieve! Wish there weren't so many t-shirts to print Sad

Photography isn't my thing, so the beauty is lost in the lens flare and such. But it was a beautiful day!

Very nice photos.
Please give the make, model and part number of your windshield, please...I am looking for one similar to yours.
Thank you.

Hi Bob,
It's the National Cycle Street Shield EX. Here is a link to their line of shields that they recommend for the CB1100.

I like mine but wish it were a bit taller or shorter. The turbulence is in an annoying spot for my height. Others have sawed theirs down with good results. I may try that one day.
