Re: [St] Heated Grips.....

["Jeremy Witt" <Jeremy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Having riden to work yesterday, tempted by the 50 degree high, I ended up riding home past 8pm, with the temperature just below freezing when I rolled into the driveway.  I agree with Frederic, the tips of the thumbs especially receive no heat from the grips.  I was contemplating hand guards, the Revit gloves, and even heated gloves during that chilly adventure.

Hi folks

I had heated grip on my BMW KRS.
For me it was pretty inefficient. The location that was really painful
was the end of the fingers, and the heated grip didn't help.
Though in winter I was most of the time commuting and then
touching the alloy levers often. I think that for that purpose
heated gloves are better.

Now I use a much more ugly solution. But it works well even for the rain.
