I do alot of riding in the cold and have been looking for handlebar mitts or handlebar gauntlets. i am thinking with a set of these and heated grips i shouldn't even have to wear gloves. does anyone use these things? also are there other names that i should look under besided gauntlets or mitts.

 

Check out atv or snowmobile suppliers thats a pretty common item on those websites. I've never tried them on a bike.

 

Back in the seventies, I had a pair of these on my CB550Four when I was commuting. They were called Hippo hands. Leather or vinyl, laced over the handlebar coverning the grips and the levers. They worked great. Old, wiser (maybe), and got in behind a bigger fairing with better technology gloves. Don't rule out heated gloves. I got my wife a pair last year, with the controller, around $200.00. See if you can find some on sale at the end of the season. I can't recommend anything but the HD label. I looked into Gerbring and others, but went with what a friend had used and she is very happy.

I could be wrong, but I'm 'pretty' sure that Gerbing manufactures the heated items for HD....so you save money buying directly from Gerbing instead of paying for the HD label.

i would have to drive my truck,before i put them on my bike.IMHO

 

having your hands tied up in them things dont seem like a good idea to me
my hand warmer cost $20,000... its called Ultra Classic

 

I agree 110%. Those things are pretty damn funny looking

 

There are folks out there that say the same thing about windscreens.

 

They are ugly as hell.....but, from what I have been told, they work. wouldnt put em on MY ride tho
