getting chilly ?
 
so far this week I've loaned out both pairs of muffs (for evaluation purposes), had 3 people ask me about heated grips, sold one old set I had and have 2 sets of the cheap heater elements to help fit next week, I guess people are starting to feel the chill, I haven't put the fuse back in on the S4 or fitted the heated seat or heated grips to the Pegaso as yet, but nice to know the stuff's there when needed.

Dress up warm people; especially when the sun goes down.

Cheers Mark.

BMW already do a heated seat!

My Oxford hot grips have given up, so after a new pair. I'm not willing to waste money on them again, so what's a good alternative please?

Pete ;)

Was thinking along the lines of catheter bag, topping up the cooling system.

I've been fitting the element kits for a few years now for those on a budget at less than a tenner they are a good alternative to grips, they last a couple of years, but most just throw them away come summer.

Best solution... handguards with muffs over the top and heated grips.

Just need to go scrounge more neoprene to make MYC some muffs.

The bodgeit and scarpa muffs I have on the XJ900 are leagues ahead of the handguards and hotgrips I have on the SV.
