I'm looking for some solidly made gloves with wind and waterproofing and minimal pillowing.
Suggestions please?
I know I'm going to get lambasted for this, but for really cold days, I use a pair of Scott ski gloves that are waterproof, windproof, have adjustable wrist cinches and are very warm. They have palm pads that will probably only protect against snow or soft sand, but hey, I like to live dangerously.
ALSO: Babblefish, mind sharing your ski-pants source? That's an incredible deal, from the sounds of it. My homemade lap blanket does really well, but I like having options, hehe.
I bought them at a local sports emporium called "Sports Authority". They're made by Slalom and are of a fabric type material rather than smooth, slick nylon so they grip the seat. The scooter seat. Not my seat.
And Apiarist, do those gloves keep the bees out as well? (What brand/model are you trying?)

Additional info on the pants I bought - they ride high, so your torso is well protected against the elements. Also, the side pockets don't allow access to your inner pants pockets, but the side zippers unzip from either the top or the bottom and are easy enough to get to that you can partially unzip one side from the top to get to your inner pockets. The waist has elastic with additional adjustment via velcro'd straps...for those that may expand it bit from time to time.
And in case anyone prefers them, Sports Authority also has bib overalls on sale for the same price, but they don't have the side zippers.

they do keep the bees out, but i let them in anyway so they can get warm too.lostmycage: And Apiarist, do those gloves keep the bees out as well? (What brand/model are you trying?)
i'll get back to you on the brand since they and a couple renegade bees are down in the pet carrier. they aren't so very well tested for warmth yet as i have been caging it lately with this nasty cold i am nursing although i tried the redlines first and i know from my limited experience these are way better.
i picked them up at scoot richmond the day before the rally, when they got the latest shipment of gloves in. they are black, bulky but not too bulky, are contoured like a riding glove with the curve shape for the hand built in, they have a drawstring and a velcro closing at the end. they are made with thinsulate too. i don't think they are the corrazzo gauntlets. once i get the brand i'll pm you.

OK, an update on those waterproof ski pants I just bought...they aren't.
Rode to work today in the rain and by the time I got to work, my crotch area looked like I had one (maybe two) beers too many and didn't make it to the restroom in time. I have to tell ya, walking around with a wet crotch is not my idea of a good time. I think the water may have gotten in through the front zipper which is not well protected with a closable flap.
Oh, and those supposedly waterproof Scott gloves? They're not.
Welp, back to the drawing board!

Rode home from work last night at 1am, it was 27 degrees in Providence. What I wore: Under Armor cold gear top and bottom, 2nd cotton thermal layer, work uniform, sweatshirt, Corazzo 5.0 jacket, balaclava, Olympia Women's Gore-Tex Cold Weather Gloves, full face helmet. In the future I will add my summer gloves under the Olympias (they have been just fine for me down to about 32, at 27 I got a bit cold), and a second balaclava. I can also add my work extreme cold weather bib overalls for even colder riding.
BTW, my scooter had a thin layer of frost on it I had to wipe off, and it didn't seem too happy to be running in such cold temps.

Its possible if you were doing any real speed that your carb was icing. Due to the way a carb sucks in air, it can super-cool it enough to actually slush the gas as it enters the motor. Which will cause stuttering, and in some really cold cases complete stalling.generalstrike wrote:Rode home from work last night at 1am, it was 27 degrees in Providence.

My scooter has been stalling when its close to freezing or colder out. I've tried both letting the engine warm up and riding it straight away and, either way, once the engine does warm up, the idling RPMs drop and it stalls. Is carb icing my problem? Is there a way to adjust a low idle?Kaos wrote:

You can adjust the low idle, there's an idle adjustment screw on the carb. But honestly, if you ARE icing, that will likely make it worse There are additives you can add to your gas that is basically "anti-freeze' for your gas.HarryGoldfarb wrote:My scooter has been stalling when its close to freezing or colder out.

Yeah, it's gotten cold. I'm seeing no two-wheelers save for crazy bicycle people (you know who you are). I came home a different way tonight and I passed a grizzled old guy with no helmet (but wearing a fleece cap) on a sweet vintage bike. I was so shocked I gave myself away with a big girly grin. At least I followed-up with a good head nod. Nod returned. Who else is out riding in New England at this point? Oh yeah, crazy people.

26F this morning with wind chill down to mid teens - I dont know what impact 30-50mph on a scooter has on wind chill but it was pretty nippy riding in this morning! yesterday was the first day I put the fleece lined bike tights back on under my pants for the ride home, today will be the second. I broke out the TourMaster PolarTex Gloves today - they're as warm as my winter leather gloves with the fleece liners. any colder and I'll double up the fleece liners with the PolarTex and should be good down to 20f - my limit of pain for the past 3 seasons.

25f this morning. My gear: windscreen (HUGE difference), Tourmaster Intake jacket (all three layers with a light fleece jacket underneath), jeans with batman tights underneath (those stretchy things runners wear), a turtle fur neck warmer, my nasty old boots, and Cortech (Tourmaster) Scarab winter gloves.
Toasty except for my fingertips. And I believe this is why. The Scarab gloves have been fantastic, at least through the 30's. This morning, however, I wore a pair of fleece liners under the Scarabs and my fingertips got really cold. I think my mistake was that the liners took up all of the insulating air space in the Scarabs. I have a thin pair of polyprophlene running gloves I will try tomorrow.
BTW - yes, I was very self-conscious when I started wearing the Intake jacket - its armor is very conspicuous and its styling, well, crotch-rocket. But now that the days are short and my moderate to heavy traffic commute is in the grey dawn / dusk (or darkness), I'm extra glad to have its protection. Anyway, I carry a messenger bag which covers the most obnoxious part of the jacket - the very reptilian-looking foam padding which runs up the spine like some bad costume from a science fiction movie.
BBTW, I readjusted my low idle when it was 35f and all has been good - no stuttering, burping, stalling, or hesitation. We'll see how things go when it hits the teens (tonight?).

I ride all year unless there is ice or snow on the road. The only thing to freeze is my hands--and they seem to do so no matter what gloves I wear! I think the hand warmers from Scooterworks may be the next step. The big problem is not the cold, it's the wind! I've tried all sorts of things to keep the wind off my hands but nothing works well.
Otherwise, I ride with a FFH, fleece neck warmer, L.L. Bean parka and flannel-lined jeans, and boots. It keeps me warm! I need to see if my armored jacket will fit over my parka.

gloves and stuff
I have 2 pair of gloves. Mechanix for normal (warm) driving and some ski type. I also have leather glove covers that slide over my gloves. I decide which I am wearing depending on how cold it is.
I just bought a pair of bib ski pants. Man those are great for keeping the wind off of my legs.
As for my jacket my Carazzo jacket is impervious to the weather. I have been in the cold and rain and still managed to keep my upper half dry and toasty. For hot weather I have a mesh jacket.
Full face helmet, balaclava and a day-glo orange vest rounds out my scoot wear.

Wind is seriously the worst. Pugbuddy, I'm guessing you've tried it, but Gore-Tex is pretty much the sh*t when it comes to keeping you warm. I used to try so many different things for snowboarding, and this past season I just used some Gore-Tex-containing mittens with a nice soft lining. I was in CO snowboarding, and my hands would actually start to sweat. But the Gore-Tex lets the moisture out, so you're covered there too.
Might be different with 40-60mph wind constantly on them, but hey, you can try.

You might want to try glove liners. You can wear them as a base layer under Gore-tex, or any other glove. I've used this layered combo on very cold, windy days and never failed to keep my hands warm.pugbuddy wrote:Yep, tried the Gore-tex gloves. Unfortunately, the wind cuts through them, even the "windproof" ones.Might be different with 40-60mph wind constantly on them, but hey, you can try.
Man, those heated gloves are nice but $139.00? I cannot afford that!
You can find these at most outdoor type stores and in different fabrics from Polartec to silk. I typically go to www.cabelas.com for my outdoor gear, if you want to check them out online.

20's-30's
It was in the thirties here in Richmond over the last week. I bought a full face AGV modular helmet a week or two ago, a set of Alpinestar waterproof winter gloves, and a set of insulated coveralls (farm supply store Southern States, $50). I've had a good winter jacket for a few years. It's fleece lined and water proof (I grew up in NY, so jackets are something I'll splurge on, I can't help myself), and I wear a light fleece under when it's really cold. The jacket and fleece both zip up high enough to fit under the lip of the helmet, and that's worked really well. My girlfriend said she thought she saw a temperature in the 20's on the news, but I couldn't tell. Lots of people at work think I'm out of my mind for riding year round, but so far, I'll be out there unless it's snowing. Right now, the Roughouse is all I've got and it's definitely enough, but I'm thinking of upgrading to a 150 cc Buddy, just to be able to go longer distances to go camping and what not in the warmer weather. I'm warming to the retro scooters and I love my Roughouse, so I'm thinking I'm sticking with Genuine, but I need more power and the Rattler just doesn't sound like it's going to get up to speed.

it has definitely been in the 20's around here.
i just love checking weather.com in the mornings and seeing 31, feels likes 28, or worse.
my job requires business attire, so i came up w/ this solution, and it works quite well......
walls
my coworkers laugh at me routinely, but it is very roomy and toasty. if i need a little extra kick, i can put on a fleece jacket underneath. add in the AGV open helmet and face mask and i look fresh off an aircraft carrier.

My office has a running bet with an actual cash pot to guess when I'll stop riding for the season. They got their hopes up when I *DID* drive one of my cars(Well, actually a 1937 Ford Pickup) but I was picking up some parts in Beaverton, so I told them that it didn't count.sunshinen wrote:I know, I have some cheapo cotton gloves in my office that I chopped the fingertips off so I can wear them and still type.KABarash wrote: My hands are cold NOW sitting inside in the office.

They were quite disappointed to see that even though it was 28 degrees when I left home this morning, I was still on the scooter. Though I am going to head over to Corazzo H.Q. this afternoon and get me an underhoody.

I am testing out some snowboarding gloves I just got...they have a sewn in curve to fingers and a textured palm which is a plus, so far they are keeping me toasty. I haven't tried them in super-extremes yet (below 45) but I'll keep ya posted.

I don't think a temperature can count as truly extreme till you're officially in freezing territory.
We might need to develop an official scale.

I rode in this morning, weather service said it was 28 degrees. My window thermometer at home said 34, but it gets a little warmth from the house and reads a few degrees warmer than real outside temp this time of year.
I wore my Turtle Fur and all the other stuff, I was actually thinking it was a pretty enjoyable ride in this morning.
I did check when I bought my Turtle Fur, and was told "no turtles were harmed in the making of this product". I'm all about protecting the turtles. I like turtles.

I'm having this problem, too. Combine that with the fact that I have small hands (wearing size S or XS), and all the insulation interferes with my grip. I think my uncomfort stems more from wind chill than actual temperature, but what to do?
