    Default Heated Gear

    I just don't want to put up my Spyder for the winter. It is already getting chilly here in northern Ohio. Any suggestions on heated gear I could purchase to extend my riding later into the year.

    I use HD ( Gerbings) gloves when its gets about 45 degrees or lower, I have a pair of socks that I have not used yet. I have a electric control that is hooked straight to my battery that runs the gloves

    I have the Powerlet rapid FIRe jacket liner and glove liners. I have waterproof gloves and a jacket that I like so I went with the liners. I really like them. I wore my jacket today and I was warm before I hit the end of the driveway. Here's a review. http://www.webbikeworld.com/heated-m...ated-clothing/
    There's reviews on the Gerbings, WarmNSafe and others on webbikeworld.

    I have a Tourmaster vest and Powerlet gloves. My wife has Gerbing jacket and gloves. Both work well. Heated gear has to fit snugly to work effectively. That is why there are so many sizes. I suggest you go to a store that carries it and try some on if you can. Shops that cater to toouring riders (BMW, Goldwing, etc.) usually carry it.

    I have a Gerbings jacket which I use under 40 degrees. Have Powerless on the Snyder and bikes wired to the battery. The missus has a Gerbings jacket and gloves which she used below 60degrees. :-)
