Heated grips + muffs if you really want warm hands . The best a man or woman can get

FACT


Good set of muffs on their own could suffice but you have to buy as earlier mentioned the really good ones which are about £50. I'm not talking about the Oxford Deluxe muffs either. Sorry don't know the name offhand of the dogs wotsit in muffs but will try and post it sometime this week.

The Givi muffs does look like it'll do a better job than the Oxford one as well.


Cheers
Ben

I bought cheap muffs off ebay this morning. I intend to use them alongside heated grips. Just the cheap wrap around kind of heated grips though

Muffs may look a bit wrong but who cares.

Where's the heated grips options?

I can't actually select one thing on the list - I have good winter gloves, silk inner gloves and I will have heated grips soon. (muffs don't fit on the bike unfortunately)

Where's the option for 'Don't ride in the cold!'

And on a more childish note - you said 'muffs'... tee hee hee.

Wheres the heated jacket option? :P

I did read on visordown the theory being if you keep your core body temp up, then it takes longer for hands/feet to get really cold. Can anyone confirm that?

But in the very worst of winter I find heated jacket, glove inners, winter gloves and heated wraparounds on the grips works for me.
