I always find myself looking at new bikes and planning trips this time of year! :D

Look into a Frost Heater! I've got on in each of our three VW diesels. I plug mine in about an hour before I want to start it, and by then, the engine starts up just like a summer day, and the heater is working right away. I can't tell you what a nice thing it is. Unlike a normal block heater, it circulates the heated coolant, which makes it more effective.
