Andy Yes, there are plenty of us http://www.policespecials.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=106501 To answer your question, I'd look at the Keis heated glove liners. About £45, plus the cost of the battery pack for them (guess you are looking at about £75 in total). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knopfler 0 Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Look at some Oxford heated grips. Got some on my CBR600F, easy to fit (and I'm a REAL technophobe) simple on/off switch and they really take the edge off. I found I even have to turn them off occasionally as they are that effective. Some slightly more expensive models have an adjustment dial if you want to get fancy. I found they do remove some of the sensitivity through the grips but nothing drastic. They are also cleverly designed to detach really easily with plug in connectors. All the wiring stays put just undo the velcro on the grips themselves. £30 quid or so, got mine on ebay. Or just man up.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
