RE: Heated gloves and vests?

My neighbor has a Gerbing heated jacket liner and loves the thing. When I'm bundled up to ride when it's 30 he is looking nice and comfy.

Gerbing does make HDs gloves, however HDs gloves don't have a life time warranty on the heating elements, Gerbings do.(Last I heard)

RE: Heated gloves and vests?

i have the jacket and gloves. yes they can extend your riding season, BUUUUTTTTT, be smart. I let the heated clothing get to my head this past winter, and i hit some ice on the loop around indianapolis (456). for those of you that know the area, it is where 465 west turns south, that big long sweeping curve. wasnt good.

Gah, I wouldn't want to think of heated anything with today weather.. was in the 75s.. with a warm wind.

But I might buy some this summer maybe get a discount, Gerbings looks like it is pretty nice stuff. I might go that way.

I have the HD heated jacket liner and gloves. I'd skip the vest and go with the jacket liner. You can order them off the web for 20% less than the dealer.

FYI in Alaska only "girls" use heated gear.

I guess that a move to Alaska would mean a sex change for me! lol Just about to order heated gloves at the least and may go ahead and order the jacket liner while I'm at it.
