I personally just were a set of Long Johns so my neck is covered.

There is a special on sportbiketrackgear.com right now, it isn't a full balaclava but reviews very well. Only like $18.

Just a neck gater seems to work really well...anything fleece-like that'll bunch up at the bottom of the helmet and block wind from getting to your face.

i just use a neck gator and heavy winter gloves

I'm sure that one from Alpinestars would work well, but it seems a little excessive. I just have one from REI that works well, looks something like this...

You don't really need something thick enough to keep you warm, you just need something good at deflecting a little wind. I prefer this one to a normal neck gator because it lets me cover my chin, which tends to get a little cold too. I'm sure different helmets do better jobs of blocking your chin than others though.

We call those a "terrorist". As in "My head is nice and warm because I have my terrorist on"

I have a terrorist and a nice fleece buell neck gaiter

and Noj helmet seal.

I have a Schampa kind of like this one. It works great and doesnt let the wind really at all speeds. I got mine from harley, so i paid 30 for mine....

But you get what you pay for. Just try to get a long one that can be tucked into your jacket. The worst thing when riding is feeling where that wind is seeping in at.[mad]
