[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3959602, member: 15054"] Sounds like you have a battery that needs replaced. I drove my V65 every day to work for a year on a $20 bet it could not be done. No issues with cranking even when it was 10 degrees outside. I have many friends and relatives that ride Harleys in the winter and no issues with starting. I wore an HJC full face Snell approved helmet with a fog deflector and vents in front. Screw looks I need function. I rode when it was sleeting and snowing and when roads were covered with ice. Warm is a must and I found out if I put on my regular work clothes and then my coveralls and then a rain suit I was very toasty. Really cold or nasty days i would have my leather jacket on under the coveralls. I also wore ACME slip on concrete boots PVC over boot. No cold or wet feet ever.

There were 2 of us riding 55+ miles each day in terrible weather and we tried many kinds of gloves. I ended up using fur lined welding gloves. If you can make a wind block for your hands that is a great addition. DO NOT use neoprene gloves in the extreme clod. Your hands will sweat and get stupid cold. At least ours did. I ran the same tires no matter what the weather and I wore a neck brace also. Have fun and be safe. [/QUOTE]
