Up here in the “NORDTH” country, where it is currently 17o (that’s above 0o for
now!) we stretch the 3 warm months by sticking these in our gloves for riding
and deer hunting. The are not full heat for 10 hours, but they will last
longer than your face and the rest of your body. Really cold, one on the back
of the hand, and one on the palm. They also have a slightly different one for
boots, that requires less oxygen. My understanding is that they are an iron
oxide that heats when exposed to oxygen. Recommended by someone who will be
riding only on warmer days – above freezing, no snow or ice, etc... They are
available everywhere up here, probably not down in the south country. Quick,
and cheap.

I bought heated gloves and jacket a few years ago and I really like them,
especially for long rides. I don't find the connection to be a problem, but as
Allen said, there are some brands that come with their own battery.

I ride a few days a month in the winter. But not when there's call for rain
or snow, for obvious reasons, or sub 20 degree weather as my gloves aren't
effective enough for the extreme cold. I can't bring myself to buy heated
gloves, though I have thought about it. There's Something about "plugging in"
that's bothers me.

The summers can be rough, I pick on my buddies north of I-10 because I get to
ride all winter long and they can't but I rarely take mine out of the garage
during late July and August.

Dude, I grew up in Houston, Westbury, near Meyerland and Bellaire. Have
very fond memories (Westbury Square, etc.) and think about going back, but
summers are a killer. Texas is great though... great folks, great mindset,
great geographic diversity (Gulf Coast, Hill Country, Piney Woods, Panhandle,
etc.)

I agree with Phil, the money allocated to fixing potholes on I-10 between
New Orleans and Vinton Louisiana isn't making it into the roads.
When I transport a bike I tie it down without the side stand, but you can
use it if you want, the key is to really cinch down the straps to compress the
suspension. Run the straps through the triple tree and ratchet down until you
take 3 or 4 inches out of the shocks. In back I usually strap to the grab bar,
I'm not sure if the 90s bikes have anything like that.
Btw, what part of Houston are you moving to?

Seriously, like Dave said, you don't need no stinkin' trailer.
Then backing up is a raw deal and time waster.
Tie it as secure as you can with buffer loads around it (on far back
end of load).
Just use common freight loader and material handling sense.
The roads really suck between Central LA and TX border line (somebody's
been keeping Fed Expressway taxes),
but they get much better after you get over the TX line (Orange County,
TX.) Smooth sailing to Houston: well the whole
trip is really nice except from Central LA to TX border (i.e. don't
travel at night during this leg of trip, it could end up a nightmare
- i.e. no street lamps, anywhere in cities or expressway, freakin'
spooky.)
Good luck!

Dear Nighthawkers-who-have-recently-moved,
I have an upcoming move (Atlanta->Houston) and wanted some feedback
on a couple options for moving the bike ('97 CB750). Since the trailer rating
of the Nighthawk is rather low :), UHaul seems the best choice. Would you
suggest:
1. Carry the Nighthawk on a trailer behind the box truck
2. Load the Nighthawk into the box truck
Moving to Atlanta several years back, I had a CB250 loaded into a 10'
box truck, sitting on the kickstand with a couple ropes to keep it from falling
over. That worked just fine. Would the heaver CB750 be alright riding in the
truck on the kickstand (with some support ropes), or do I need to tie it down
on just the wheels?
Cheers,
-ntd
