Altbergs, Gerbings, heated grips - guaranteed effective to 4 degrees below at 80mph. 
There are limits - when I got home after 50 miles on the motorway at 7 degrees below my testicles didn't put in an appearance for several hours.

i also had to put a fog city in the visor and even that wasnt perfect as soon as i stopped.
i like the heated grips idea, did my das in Nov and the ER5 had heated grips, they just didnt work

for this my mates used to take the piss 
, Until i gave up smoking i would suffer with chronic cold in my hands and feet so i bought some heated gloves like thesehttp://www.busters-accessories.co.uk/produ...w=heated+gloves
Far better than grips, and on one of our trips to europe going through belgium the temp dropped to 2 degrees, bloody glad i had them at the time and my fellow riders wished they did have them

Sept OK.. Oct-March - you must be nuts. i did some commuting on my previous bike (RIP) in April and i came close to frostbite i think
) and they were easy to fit. Makes riding in the Autumn/Winter so much more bearable
