As cold as you can handle the wind blowing on you....If you turn into a popsicle then your to cold....But your engine will be fine....

Re: How Cold?
Think 2 cycle snow blowers...Your engine is no different. It will run as long as you can stand the cold.

Re: How Cold?
You need knee and knuckle protection as well as a scarf over your face at below zero temperatures or you get frost bite but the bike will still be running.
To stop the carb from icing up you can make a tubing sleeve over the exhause pipe and run it to the intake so it gets warmed air or ice can form inside the carb and leave you stranded.

Re: How Cold?
I have gone all year round incuding -45 degree weather. Making it through 2-3 foot drifts using a Ktrak drive system.
