Thats chilly riding..........your welcome to the 45*c Summer ridin feeling

 

Those gloves look great for snowboarding or skiing, but they don't look very abrasion-resistant. I'd go for the liners, with rechargeable battery pack. Then just put your own gloves over them.

Mine aren't the real thing, but they work well. They were a gift from JC Whitney when I ordered some Jeep stuff over 25 years ago. The real things were made by Vetter, but I don't think they have been made in years. Here's a pair on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/USED-...Q5fAccessories. It's $25 now, but may go for $50. Time to snark them.

 

Slowpoke,

do those JC WHitney hippo hands work good? I saw a website for hippo hands yesterday

 

Same problem here, though I have long, bony fingers that get cold real fast, in the 40's F probably. I was going to try the clear plastic shields that attach to the mirror mounts on my VTX...seems if I block the wind, it'll be much better. I have also been researching heated gloves, but would need to do some wiring for a power point.

 

I used to say the same thing until I tried the heated grips and I can honestly say that it is one of the best accessories you can add to your bike. Not a hard install and you will be toasty warm all the time, take my work for it you won't be sorry!!!! Gary C.
