COLD! knees on FLHTC Ultra

Now then, it's around 8 degrees c arpound here and my knees are getting bloody cold on the electra!

For some reason they're exactly in the airstream and whilst the rest of my body stays nice and warm, my knees are bloody COLD!!!

Is there some sort of wind deflector or something for sale that helps in this area?

p.s. allstars seem a tad cold for this weather as well...

You can get covers for your crash bar.

You know those 'leggings' that many women wear? At least here in the US they do anyway.

I took one leg of a set and cut them in half. I stretch them over my jeans and over my kneecaps (and under my chaps!) for my winter time commuting. It works beautifully.
