Anyone have battery heated gloves they would recommend? My fingers are the first thing to freeze out in cold weather. Do not really want to get all wired to the moto battery.

 

Mine are 12v, but Gerbings also offers the portable variety... http://coreheat.net/Products/Heated%20S2%20Gloves.html

 

If you select the Features tab on the above referenced link, the last line reads;
This product is not designed to be used on motorcycles

 

Good for chopping wood but not for riding bikes?

Edit: I just emailed them asking why...will see what their reasoning really is.

 

Probably because chopping wood doesn't involve a 70 mph wind chill factor.


What Gerbing will recommend are THESE.

 

I personally would never wear them. You can go pick you up a really nice pair of Gauntlets that are thermally lined with some thick *** wool for about half the price of what you're going to spend on the heated ones.

 

I watched all their video and and motorcycle use is mostly what they talked about. How are yours doing rickss 69? Thank you for the link.

 

And your hands are going to get really cold shortly lol. These are the ones I bought... http://gerbing.com/Products/Gloves/nubuckGlove.php ...as soon as I get the front caliper back on I'll let you know the results.

 

Honestly, it's been sub 30's up here almost every day/night for a good month and a half now and I've done about 1400 miles and my hands have been fine. You have to get the good ones!

 

+1 - Unheated gloves may keep you warm for a short ride, but after 30+ minutes at highway speeds, the cold will creep through.
Of course if you're on a bagger and your hands are protected from the wind blast by a fairing, that's a different ballgame.
