I think the sizing is a little small but then it is to be worn under clothing so it very well might be intentional.

Rode my 2022 this past Sunday (Feb 5th)
Outside temp was aprox 37 F or 2.78 C - Mildly windy, very Mild.

 

So I can honestly say I wasn't that bad temp wise. 
What I wore:

Shoei RF-1400 (Matt Black) w/ Revo Deep Blue shield

Pants: Street & Steel Oakland Jeans

Now as other people have mentioned. The RF-1400 helmet is a high airflow helmet. Meaning there is a lot of air moving through the helmet. And being as cold as it was outside. It wasn't THAT cold but it was cool enough that extended periods of time, it could have been bad.

Now maybe some Balaclava would make a huge difference because I could feel the cold on my neck and the coolness on my head (with the lack of hair that comes with age LOL)

Now remember, it will need to be super thin or it will make your helmet (during the summer\warmer climate) loose.

 

The only other thing I think would be great is a winter riding glove.
My hands were stiff and mildly hurt, don't have that much feeling as normal. But I did notice towards the end my hands hurt some.
