Was looking at the newest t5 hybrid. Was curious about how warm they are without a fairing to block the wind.
Not planning on riding sub freezing as it rarely gets that cold here in western Washington. Thanks.

 

I have old wired heated gloves.They work well .No fairing.40 degrees is usually my cut off temp.

 

Don't know about the newest Gerbing gloves but I ride year round on my Road King using Gerbing G3's. My bike has 18" Carlini gangster apes. I am comfortable even in mid 30's but that's me.

 

I ride year round as well and I've been using the Gerbing's G3's too. I had no complaints with my old RK. This winter, I will be babied with my RG and heated gloves...

 

I used a pair of Gerbings for years, and I've never had a fairing. They worked down into the mid teens and low thirties for me.

 

I use T5's and have ridden in 8 degree temps. Before I put mini apes on my SG (behind the fairing), I could keep them at a low to mid setting and stay warm. Since installing the apes (hands now above the fairing) last fall, in colder temps I need to keep them on high setting - definitely a big difference without the fairing, but they do stay warm. I'm seriously thinking about mounting hand wind guards for this winter to block the wind.

 

I know quite a few people who use these as a supplement to their gloves in cold weather.

Thanks for the input. Wasn't sure if they would be worth it. I knew they would definitely be warmer than just gloves, but enough so to justify the cost. Wasn't going to try if it was the difference between frozen and just not as cold.

 

The T-5's work great. It's even a good glove not plugged in. Plug it in and your hands are toasty warm. Used them on a Heritage w/ no fairing btw.

 

I got a pair of gerbing but I haven't had the opportunity to test them in real cold on the bike yet. The last time I rode in the cold was last fall right before winter and it was 40 F with a wind chill in the 30's. My buddies and I had to warm our hands on the engine of the bike at stop lights to keep them warm. It was fun but I'm glad I don't have to do that anymore.
