Cold Fingers

[Atonic]

Heated gloves are the best solution. But wiring yourself to the bike can be a pain.

battery operated gloves are even more expensive and not warm enough for some folks.

heated grips are harder to install, but easy to use. But they only heat the inside of your fist. Gloves designed for heated grips have less insulation on the grip side so you get more warmth from the grip.

my bike came with heated grips. I use those and a slightly insulated glove when it gets chilly. When it gets cold I put on the hippo hands and go back to summer gloves.

I do not have the semi auto, but would mittens or "shooters gloves" work ? I do not think they would work on a standard shift.
Just a Idea

try installing CYCRA STEALTH DX ALLOY RACER PACK HANDGUARDS they will keep the cold wind away.

Gloves in Florida

You can bet your bippie Sherlock it gets :cus: cold in Florida I just turn on my Spyder handlebar grip heaters and thirty seconds later they are getting warm. What type gloves do I wear? Natural unlined deer skin. Or Can Am heavy fabric gloves.....

+Hippos with good gloves are fine for me, or with snowmobile mittens in the true winter.

Ride on.

SkiDoo Gauntlets for snowmobiles. They are not expensive and may be worth a try.
I use gauntlets on my snowmobile. Cuts the wind and keeps the warmth in.
I always keep a pair in my frunk, incase it gets too cold.

Greetings :spyder2:Brothers and Sisters,

I am looking into options to keep my fingers warm while riding as the cold is fast approaching and do not plan to stop riding. What set up do you have on your RS-S for heated gloves, heat troller, battery heated gloves?.............looking for options

Thank you

I have gerbings, hooked right into my byke!! Was thankful to have them yesterday!!

Snowmobilers have been using "Hippo hands" for decades...
Why not try a set of them?

Gerbings Heated Stuff works Great

I like to ride in the winter. People see the Spyder more since it is usually the only bike on the road, so it helps with safety also. I have heated insoles, pants, jacket liner and gloves so stay warm no matter what the temp. You do have to be a little careful with the wires, but the Gerbing stuff has it set up pretty well so they are easy to manage. A variable heat controller is a must. The biggest challenge is getting all of the stuff on so you can ride.

Try coming a few states north in the winter and style won't matter so much when it's below zero wind chill.... :thumbup:

I am not worried about style, need something to keep fingers warm. My fingers tend to get cold a lot faster than the rest of my body.

I just installed these "Bikemaster" Heated grips (7/8) to replace the Hot Hands Velcro grips I used before on My 09 GS.

They are only $54 are work great- 5 Different levels and are as Good or better than the Stock RT heated Grip for warmth and there are 5 different levels. The grips themselves are slightly BIGGER than the stock GS/RS Grip and more comfortable!!!

The reviews on the Link bear out what I,m saying.nojoke

 

[Silvervette05]

I have HD heated gloves that work great.

I was thinking about this, what about installing those hard plastic deflector handguards like atvs and dirtbikes have?
