I have a pair of winter gloves that are insulated, leather palms, wind blocking outer shell, etc that work OK down to the up twenties, but are so bulky that I can't really feel the controls. Heat glove liners and heated gloves are less bulky so I feel the controls like I was wearing normal leather gloves.

How do you winter riders keep your Visor/goggles from freezing up I'm as old school /stupid as it gets 30 years on a Shovelhead and a beaney helmet -i just froze but i was tough/stupid ---we seeing a pattern here lol
My new to me 98 Road King has a windshield and i bought a 3/4 helmet with a drop visor . But the damn thing slowly freezes up to the point its unusable so end up with the visor up , any ideas ?

What's the old saying? If you ain't smart, you better be tough. I use a Biltwell bubble shield on my helmet it works pretty good.

I have some Olympia Cold Throttle gloves -

Pretty good down to 25 degrees and behind a shield or hand guards. Below that my pinky gets cold after 15 minutes.
I just use them for under 30 minute jaunts for the most part as I have G3s for longer cold rides.

I just bought some Freeze Out gear from Cycle Gear that includes glove liners. If they work as well as the pants and shirt, they'll be awesome under my waterproof gauntlets. Haven't had a chance to try them on the bike yet as I've been battling Bronchitis the last few days.
Whatever you get, if they don't block the wind, your hands won't stay warm. If these liners don't work, my next step will be these, as they are supposed to be windproof also.

Then if those don't work, I'll try to find an old pair of Air Force issue mittens. Like these...

Day 4...
29F on commute in, 23F on way home...
Same hd windshielder gauntlet gloves I posted link to previously...
again, no issues with cold hands or fingers...
Toes are starting to get cold with redwing oil tanned pecos leather boots with hunting socks, but not unbearable yet...
Guess I'll have to find some wind resistant boots too...

Well, yes, you can wear non-heated gloves anytime you want, but I'm assuming your question is really: "Is there such a thing as non-heated gloves that will keep your fingers warm at temperatures 30F and below?"
That's a definite no.
