Cool beans. I rode my TransAlp to work yesterday morning. 15.5 degrees around Niwot. I have Gerbing's gear though so I'm generally warm enough except that the left glove has a short (or the sleeve has a short) so it only works part of the time.
You can get a Fog City liner for your helmet shield which stops the fogging to about 16 or 17 degrees. After that you should look at a Froggy face shield because your breath will freeze on contact with the Fog City liner anyway :)
It was a beautiful morning for a ride though :)

Rode my Honda Metro to work this morning. 15 deg. Its only 1.5 miles. I rapped trailer house heat tape around the coolent hose, cilender, and under the carb. Also have a battery tender under the seat. Starts nice.

heated gear would be nice, it was not too bad, the jacket was fine, hands were cold a bit, heated grips on a gsxr? maybe a V-Strom or SV....
