Since moving out here i've had to do alot more motorway to get to work,and now it's winter the old finger tips are starting to struggle with the cold.My body is fine,it's just the tips of my fingers.The other day my fingers were in agony.It felt like all the tips were being pinched with pliers or something.When I got to work and took my gloves off all the ends of my fingers had gone black and dark red as if I'd shut them in the door.....Not good.....So I decided to buy some Klan heated inner gloves £66....I've just come back from an hour of motorway riding and I must say that they are very very good.They keep your hands lovely and warm.The only thing is I have to remember to unplug myself from the bike before i get off,or risk looking stupid.Anyway just thought I'd let you know incase anyone one was thinking of getting some.......cheers:jumping2 :jumping2 :jumping2

I got heated grips last year and although I didn't really use them much until this winter, I'm now completely sold on them.
There's no medals for doing it the hard way

I've had some heated gloves and a vest since 1997 and I can honestly say they are the best things I ever bought in 23 years of biking. I do a 100 miles a day whatever the weather (mostly motorway stuff so the windchill is terrible) and I think I would've lost the will to live and possibly a few fingers without them.

Yes,they can run from the bike battery or from a seperate battery pack.I've got mine running from the bike.I just plug into it when i get on....
