Install heated grips and bar covers and you can ride all winter in your summer gloves.

I have the Harley Windshielders but if I was starting from scratch I would definitely go heated. Keeping your hands warm is a must for cold weather riding. I'll probably be getting some soon. The Gerbing G3's are one of the best. If interested go to www.grandprixmotorsports.com and type in the code GERB002 and you get a 20% discount.

Just bought the basic deer skin ridin' gloves from Hot Leathers- $28. They're lined, keep your hands really warm & very comfortable to wear. Great gloves for the price!

I am looking for some warm gloves myself and have no need nor do i want electric. Waste of money for me. It just does not get that cold where i live and i don't want the hassle of plugging in and dangling wires.

I agree heated gloves are the way to go once the temps are in the 30's and below, but I don't wear mine till then. Guess the glove depends on what you consider cold. I've worn my heated gloves in the teens and my hands have been toasty warm. 8 )

Install a set of Heat Demons. They work great and you can ride all year with thin gloves.

Heated grips don't even make sense,how are you going to keep the part of your hand the wind, hits warm? I've talked to alot of folks about it already,lots of problems, heated grips,not warm enough etc.

What are heat demons?
I went to the dealer today and I can honestly say the heated gloves were the best fit.
I'm still on the fence though.
